Question: Thomas Vinterberg (born 19 May 1969) is a Danish film director who, along with Lars von Trier, co-founded the Dogme 95 movement in filmmaking, which established rules for simplifying movie production, best known for the film, Far from the Madding Crowd, a 2015 British romantic drama film, an adaptation of the 1874 novel of the same name by who?
Context: Italian for Beginners (Danish: Italiensk for begyndere ) is a 2000 Danish romantic comedy film written and directed by Lone Scherfig.  The film stars Anders W. Berthelsen, Lars Kaalund and Peter Gantzler, together with Ann Eleonora Jørgensen, Anette Støvelbæk and Sara Indrio Jensen.  The film was made by the austere principles of the Dogme 95 movement, including the use of hand held video cameras and natural lighting, and is known as "Dogme XII".  However, in contrast to most Dogme films which are harsh and serious in tone, "Italian for Beginners" is a light-hearted comedy.  Made on a low budget of $600,000, the film ranks as the most profitable Scandinavian film in history. Dogme language teaching is considered to be both a methodology and a movement.  Dogme is a communicative approach to language teaching that encourages teaching without published textbooks and focuses instead on conversational communication among learners and teacher.  It has its roots in an article by the language education author, Scott Thornbury.  The Dogme approach is also referred to as "Dogme ELT", which reflects its origins in the ELT (English language teaching) sector.  Although Dogme language teaching gained its name from an analogy with the Dogme 95 film movement (initiated by Lars von Trier), the connection is not considered close. The Idiots (Danish: Idioterne ) is a 1998 Danish comedy-drama film written and directed by Lars von Trier.  It is his first film made in compliance with the Dogme 95 Manifesto, and is also known as Dogme #2.  It is the second film in von Trier's "Golden Heart Trilogy", preceded by "Breaking the Waves" (1996) and succeeded by "Dancer in the Dark" (2000).  It is among the first films to be shot entirely with digital cameras. Thomas Vinterberg (born 19 May 1969) is a Danish film director who, along with Lars von Trier, co-founded the Dogme 95 movement in filmmaking, which established rules for simplifying movie production.  He is best known for the films "The Celebration" (1998), "Submarino" (2010), "The Hunt" (2012) and "Far from the Madding Crowd" (2015). Dogme 95 was a filmmaking movement started in 1995 by the Danish directors Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg, who created the "Dogme 95 Manifesto" and the "Vows of Chastity" (Danish: "kyskhedsløfter" ).  These were rules to create filmmaking based on the traditional values of story, acting, and theme, and excluding the use of elaborate special effects or technology.  It was an attempt to take back power for the director as artist, as opposed to the studio.  They were later joined by fellow Danish directors Kristian Levring and Søren Kragh-Jacobsen, forming the Dogme 95 Collective or the Dogme Brethren.  "Dogme" (] ) is the Danish word for dogma. Far from the Madding Crowd is a 1915 British silent drama film produced and directed by Laurence Trimble and starring Florence Turner, Henry Edwards and Malcolm Cherry.  Trimble also adapted Thomas Hardy's 1874 novel for the screen.  "Far from the Madding Crowd" is a lost film. Karma Cartel is a Multi-Award-winning, Avant-Garde, Indian ("Malayalam film") debut feature film produced and directed by Vinod Bharathan.  It is the first Indian film to be made following the Dogme 95 Manifesto set by Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg.  However, few of the Dogme95 rules were broken for the theatrical release in India, as requested by the distributors for the film to appeal to the Indian box-office audience. Truly Human (Danish: Et rigtigt menneske ), certified as "Dogme #18", is a 2001 Danish drama film written and directed by Åke Sandgren, and starring Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Peter Mygind, and .

Joy Ride (in Swiss German: "Usfahrt") is a 2000 Swiss drama film written and directed by Martin Rengel that followed Lars von Trier's Dogme 95 manifesto.  It is classified as the 14th dogme movie.  "Joy Ride" employs a very realistic, near-documentary style, with a story based on the homicide of a 19-year-old girl in Zürich, Switzerland in 1992.  The incident attracted a great deal of media coverage in Switzerland. Far from the Madding Crowd is a 2015 British romantic drama film directed by Thomas Vinterberg and starring Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts, Michael Sheen, Tom Sturridge and Juno Temple.
