Lars von Trier, who was banned from Cannes for praising Hitler, was not the only one making unsavoury comments at the film festival.

Von Trier made a fool of himself, but was speaking with the heavy kind of irony that Americans and others frequently dont understand -he actually started by saying 'I used to think that I was a Jew' before ending with the Hitler comment, I don't know why people took it seriously but thats probably because as soon as you mention Hitler, it has to be qualified.
