The Boss of It All (Danish: Direktøren for det hele) is a 2006 experimental comedy film written and directed by Lars von Trier.

[8] The film uses a cinematic technique invented by von Trier himself called Automavision, which automatically determines framing by randomly tilting, panning or zooming the camera without being actively operated by the cinematographer.

Lise eventually tells Kristoffer that the original six staff members all gave Ravn $15,000 each to help him start the business, so they all think that they own part of the company.

The film closes with everyone packing up their things and leaving, while Kristoffer performs a Gambini monologue for the Icelandic boss.

The website's consensus reads, "Director Lars von Trier ditches the pretensions but keeps his misanthropy in The Boss of it All, a surprisingly sharp and witty comedy about office life gone haywire.

On February 23, 2011, it was announced that Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz was remaking The Boss of It All for Universal Pictures with Brian Grazer producing.
