DEAR WENDY (2005)
THOMAS VINTERBERG
Cast
Plot
Dick knows there is more for him than the depressed mining town heâs grown up in can offer, but with no prospects on the horizon and most of the people seeing him as a slightly freaky oddball, Dick's opportunities are slim. When the young lad finds a pearl-handled six shooter, he becomes increasingly obsessed by the gun, so much so that he forms a small band of similarly fascinated misfits called the âDandiesâ. Distinctly anti-gun culture, the westerns it parodies and a nation whose character is built on it, 'Dear Wendy' is a left-field, thought provoking slice of indie cinema and it comes as only a mild surprise to find that cinematic enfant terrible Lars Von Trier wrote it.
