Summary
Dogme 95 was a film making movement started in 1995 by the Danish directors Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg, who created the "Dogme 95 Manifesto" and the "Vows of Chastity" (Danish: kyskhedsløfter). These were rules to create film making based on the traditional values of story, acting, and theme, and excluding the use of elaborate special effects or technology. It was an attempt to take back power for the director as artist, as opposed to the studio.They were later joined by fellow Danish directors Kristian Levring and Søren Kragh-Jacobsen, forming the Dogme 95 Collective or the Dogme Brethren
When it Ended in 2005
do you feel that imposed set of rules on film making would help in making a more ''pure'' film that improves the focus on story and character? the focus would then be solely on the actors or characters and the story development. the idea was to take w nice long wholesome stab at the Hollywood expectancy of ''great'' movies.
