​​DAVID CRONENBERG'S NEW FILM FULFILLS HIS PROMISES IN CANNES

The new film from David Cronenberg "Crimes of the Future" once again lived up to the director's promises about numerous protests during the premiere at the Cannes Film Festival. The director is reunited with his colleague Viggo Mortensen, who plays Saul Tenser, a performance artist
engaged in growing new organs inside his own body as a result of a unique disease, extracting them for the audience during his avant-garde productions. Although the film will be released in the next few days, early reviews have already praised the film for its unique storytelling and off-the-wall visuals.
NYT journalist Kyle Buchanan was in the audience during the premiere of Future Crimes at the Cannes Film Festival, where he witnessed several exits throughout the screening. Earlier, the director himself said that he was waiting for the audience leaving the theater. According to the journalist,
During the performance, at least 15 people left the cinema. In addition, Buchanan cites one scene that is too disturbing for some viewers, when for almost a full minute a nearly naked man dances with ears sewn to parts of his body.
