Ennenstadt Europa - Om Lars von Trier og 'Forbrydelsens element' Page #5

existing picture of H.G.

There were four murders.

It sometimes helps to study...

the geography of a crime,

remember ?

But there was a connection

with a three-year-old tailing report.

A man called Harry Grey,

suspected

of subversive activity.

Wrongly, turned out.

I wondered if he'd made preparations

those three years earlier.

You know, groundwork--

groundwork

for the Lotto Murders.

A field trip.

Oh, bugger.

I used the old methods..

I lay in ambush

and waited for him.

He must have known.

He tried to escape in his car.

I followed.

He drove fast.

In spite of the wet

and the dark, surprisingly well.

Went into a slide.

Came off the road.

He hit a concrete pillar.

He died in the flames.

It was as if

he wanted it like that.

I couldn't help him.

Just one question.

Who's this picture

supposed to convince?

Me or you?

These talismans have been

seen all over the papers.

Anybody could make one like it.

This is the route according

to the three-year-old tailing report.

These are the four sites

of the murders.

Halberstadt, Friedingen,

Oberdorf and Neukalkau.

As you see, the corners

of a perfect square.

Four murders with approximately

one month between them.

Grey is dead

and his work completed.

A nice little

geometric puzzle.

- Past and present.

- No, Osborne. That's not good enough.

You deport a man...

for 13 years...

in the sand.

You bring him back to Europe...

where something

apparently has gone wrong.

He looks up his old teacher,

a teacher who has

unfortunately gone mad.

You asked me

who Harry Grey was.

I told you,

Harry Grey is dead.

I don't rule out--

This able-bodied man...

gets work

with the police force.

The only thing is,

there's no police force.

The old teacher

has been threatened.

He's like a dog.

He's scared.

Changes the facts

to cover for a criminal.

Furthermore, he advocates

the brilliant theories of his youth.

That's treason.

That's worse.

I can see you're scared.

You're being threatened.

Where's the tailing report?

Crime today is like

a chemical reaction.

It can only happen

in the right environment.

Intelligence and sensitivity

must be affected out there.

Don't talk to me in those bloody

clich? ! The academy days are over.

[ Fisher ]

I found this girl cut up

in Innenstadt harbor.

Innenstadt is on the square too, right

here in the middle. Grey is alive.

[ Osborne ]

So don't tell me.

If the square describes a closed figure,

this must be an opening.

Very touching.

You're happy now, aren't you?

But... take care, Fisher.

Police work has become so much more

dangerous now than it was in your day.

I know I'm a silly old bugger.

For Christ's sake, you'll do
