    INTERVIEWER: Willem Dafoe — and I think you’ve mentioned this before — plays probably the worst therapist in the history of movies.LARS VON TRIER: First of all, I have been undergoing this cognitive therapy for three years, and I tend to get sarcastic about it. One of the main ideas behind the treatment is that a fear is a thought, and a thought doesn’t change reality. But you can say in the film that it’s changed reality. As for Dafoe, I wouldn’t let him treat her in any other way than with his dick; he has an enormous dick. We had to take those scenes out of the film. We had a stand-in for him because we had to take the scenes out with his own dick. INTERVIEWER: You had a stand-in dick for Dafoe? LARS VON TRIER: We had to, because Will’s was too big. INTERVIEWER: Too big to fit on the screen? LARS VON TRIER: No, too big because everybody got very confused when they saw it.

    Back cover of Lou Reed’s 1972 album Transformer. “That was my friend Ernie. You know, uh, we just put a banana down there. I mean, if he was really like that, we all woulda been too jealous to let him… We never woulda put him on the back, we’d just say “Go away! We don’t even want to be near you.” —Lou ReedDick Talk (#1) Bulges (#1)Look Closely and See (#2)
