...Brashly brilliant...
Rolling Stone
...Filmmaker Thomas Vinterberg seems impressively in control juggling multiple characters...
USA Today
The Celebration is founded on a cheeky display of cinephilic self-promotion.

Thomas Vinterberg's The Celebration mixes farce and tragedy so completely that it challenges us to respond at all.

Extraordinary...It is a celebration, not of a sham birthday party, but of the transformative power of truth.

Best of the 'Dogme' fims, which isn't saying much, but there you go.

Product Description:
Thomas Vinterberg's contribution to the Dogma 95 collective is an electrifying achievement, driven by powerhouse acting and hand-held digital camera work so realistic that one might forget they're watching a feature film. Friends and family gather to pay tribute to Helge on his sixtieth birthday, but when it's time for the eldest son, Christian, to give the opening toast, the fireworks begin. At times hysterical, at times tragic and heartbreaking, this is a film that has the ability to single-handedly reaffirm one's faith in cinema. Inspiring and brilliant. Winner of the Jury Prize at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival.
