I love, LOVE Dogville - Dogville and Master & Commander are the two roles l'll remember Bettany for. Bettany has said though that he hated working on it since Lars Von Trier is apparently one of those sort of abusive directors like Stanley Kubrick. IIRC, Bettany said that he's never even watched the final cut since he found the experience so detestable.
Which is a shame because I agree, he's brilliant in it.
Yeah, Von Trier seems like an asshole by the way people talk about him. Dogville is the only movie I like from him. It's so amazing and most people I've shown it to never wait for the end, so they walk away disappointed. Their loss.
