Lars Von Trier, who apologized for joking during a Cannes Film Festival press conference for Melancholia that he was a Nazi and had sympathy for Adolf Hitler, is now taking back his apology.
You read that correctly.
In fact, he’s “not sorry” at all for his controversial comments, which led to him being banned from the festival.
The director tells the October issue of GQ, “To say I’m sorry for what I said is to say I’m sorry for what kind of a person I am, I’m sorry for my morals, and that would destroy me as a person. It’s not true. I’m not sorry. I am not sorry for what I said.”
He added, “I’m sorry that it didn’t come out more clearly. I’m not sorry that I made a joke, but I’m sorry that I didn’t make it clear that it was a joke. But I can’t be sorry for what I said — it’s against my nature.”
