Lars Von Trier's latest film 'The House That Jack Built', about the development of a serial killer, has sparked over 100 walkouts at Cannes.
Some reactions:
I’ve never seen anything like this at a film festival. More than 100 people have walked out of Lars von Trier’s ‘The House That Jack Built,’ which depicts the mutilation of women and children. “It’s disgusting,” one woman said on her way out. #Cannes2018pic.twitter.com/GsBGCoyHEG

Walked out on LarsvonTrier . Vile movie. Should not have been made. Actors culpable
The House That Jack Built feels like a suicide note. #Cannes2018

Talked to someone who walked out of the Lars von Trier film at Cannes: "He mutilates Riley Keough, he mutilates children... and we are all there in formal dress expected to watch it?"
