WATCH: Lars Von Trier Unveils 1 of 8 Chapter Trailers for "Nymphomaniac"
Lars Von Trier's first teaser trailer for his controversial film "Nymphomaniac" is just the appetizer. The young version of Charlotte Gainsbourg's character, Joe, asks her friend B, how to seduce boys on the train and have sex with them. "...just think of a bag of chocolate sweeties," B said.
The first "Nymphomaniac" trailer titled "Chapter 1: The Compleat Angler", is part of the eight structures of Von Trier's sexually explicit film. The other chapter titles include the following: Chapter 2: Jerome, Chapter 3: Mrs. H, Chapter 4: Delirium, Chapter 5: The Little Organ School, Chapter 6: The Eastern & Western Church (The Silent Duck), Chapter 7: THe Mirror, Chapter 8: The Gun.
Von Trier is known for using literary chapters as a device to segment his films, with "Melancholia" and "Dogville" among them.
Apart from Gainsbourg, "Nymphoniac" also stars Shia Lebouf, Uma Thurman, Christian Slater and Willem Dafoe.
Gainsbourg and Dafoe also starred in the Danish director's 2009 film "AntiChrist".
Von Trier was called a persona non grata by the Cannes Film Festival organizers when he made a controversial joke about "Hitler" at a press conference back in 2011.
"Nymphoniac" is scheduled to have its premiere in Copenhagen on December 25. Further details of its regular screening has yet to be announced.
