THE HOUSE THAT JACK BUILT | feat. Clarisse Loughrey & Hannah Woodhead

The Curzon Film Podcast - A podcast by Curzon Cinemas

In this episode we tackle one of the year's most controversial films, from one of cinemas most controversial directors, Lars Von Trier. In a mesmerising career best, Matt Dillon plays failed architect turned serial killer Jack who leads us through his thought processes behind his increasingly more depraved acts of murder which he names “incidents”. As he retells his crimes to Verge (Bruno Ganz) as if they were all individual works of art in themselves, the audience is invited to question the nature of artistry, where its limits lie and when is far too far? And with pitch black humour and undeniable cinematic vision, von Trier delights in taking us there. Hosted by Jake Cunningham, Little White Lies' Hannah Woodhead guests on the show to defend Lars' latest, whilst The Independent's Clarisse Loughrey has had enough of this provocateur.
