Von Trier regrets 'Nazi' comments

Lars Von Trier regrets making "foolish" comments about Nazism at the 'Melancholia' press conference at the Cannes Film Festival in May.

The director believes "Danish humour" was to blame for the comments – in which he said he was a "Nazi" after years of thinking he was Jewish – and believes he was "stupid" to have said it in conversation with journalists.
