Manderlay. Manderlay is a 2005 avant-garde drama film written and directed by Lars von Trier, the second and final part of von Trier's projected USA – Land of Opportunities trilogy. It stars Bryce Dallas Howard, who replaces Nicole Kidman in the role of Grace Mulligan. The film co-stars Willem Dafoe, replacing James Caan.
Mandalay had supposedly been slated as a project for Ruth Chatterton. The film is also significant as one of Shirley Temple's early appearances - most of her scenes were deleted except for a brief shot of her being carried in a woman's arms. She wouldn't become a full-fledged movie star until the release of Little Miss Marker later that same year.

Mandalay is no exception and even as a murderous prostitute she should be the main reason to watch this, without her dignified elegance it would have been a very different film. Her private life may have a series of bi-sexual conquests and abortions but on screen she was the epitome of good breeding if occasionally bittersweet.
