Nymphomaniac Trailer Plays At Disney Screening

Oh The Horror!

Have you heard of a movie called Nymphomaniac? It's by Lars von Trier, and the title kinda gives away the essence. In an epic faux pas, a Florida cinema inadvertently played a trailer for Nympho... at a screening of the latest Disney flick, Frozen. Imagine it. The horror, THE HORROR.

We're talking about a preview, according to an article in the Guardian, that has been dubbed "one of the most explicit ever to be shown in mainstream cinemas," and it played in front of a bunch of children. We're talking about a preview that was temporarily pulled from YouTube for violating its nudity and sexual content policies. 

While some parents raced for the exits, others scarcely had time to cover their children's eyes against the flesh scene.

"It seemed like forever when you're trying to, you know, cover a little guy's eyes. I didn't have enough hands to cover his ears, too, and he got the sound down real good," reported a grandmother in Tampa Bay. 

"You're talking, what, a PG-rated movie to all of a sudden have an R-rated scene up there for little children? My concern is that there should be safeguards in place so that this doesn't happen again." I'll bet it was probably quite the eye-opener for granny, too.
 
I happen to be a fan of von Trier's work, though admittedly I've missed most of his recent movies since I had my son. Who knows, maybe we can watch Nymphomaniac together. (Kidding!)
 
The star-studded cast includes Uma Thurman, Trier regular Stellan Skarsgård, Christian Slater, Jamie Bell, and Shia LaBeouf. But before you get too excited—the sex scenes are shot with body doubles.
 
Nymphomaniac premieres on Christmas Day in Trier's native land, Denmark.

Spill it. Which would you rather see: Fifty Shades the movie, Nymphomaniac or none of the above?
