Thomas Vinterberg
Thomas Vinterberg (born May 19 1969) is a Danish film director who, along with Lars von Trier, co-founded the Dogme 95 movement in filmmaking, which established rules for simplifying movie production.
His first feature film was De Største Helte (The Biggest Heroes), a road movie that received acclaim in his native Denmark. After forming the Dogme 95 collective with von Trier, he directed (and also had a small acting role in) the first of the Dogme movies, Festen (The Celebration).
In 2003 he released the apocalyptic science fiction love story It's all about Love, a movie he wrote, directed and produced himself over a period of five years. This movie was entirely in english and featured among others Joaquin Phoenix, Claire Danes, and Sean Penn. The movie was not very successful, and critics found it very complicated and hard to understand.
