Mark Kermode and Ellen E Jones ask if we still go to the movies to be shocked.As Caligula: The Ultimate Cut hits cinemas, Mark talks to stars of the notorious cult classic, Dame Helen Mirren and Malcolm McDowell. They discuss the film's long journey to the new version, and what it was really like on set of one of independent cinemas most controversial productions.Ellen examines what shock value means in the digital age and how shocking cinema has evolved over cinema's history. She speaks to film critic Virginie Selavy about how critical and audience perception of 'shocking' content has evolved from Tod Browning's Freaks to the cinema of Lar Von Trier, and if audiences really are harder to shock. Ellen then talks to comedian and director Bobcat Goldthwait about his transgressive films, which are favourites of John Waters, and how an increasingly bizarre political landscape has affected his filmmaking.Producer: Jane Long A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

I go over some films I love, cinema in general, look at several specific films that I have shown to audiences in the past, and talk about some stuff I hate too.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=27828609&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fdowngradeandafterl.wixsite.com%2Fkylewilley&utm_medium=widget&utm_source=wix)

Antichrist (2009) Jules’ finally is a tough one- the movie that people walked out on at Sundance. Lar Von Trier is a challenging figure, he is notoriously hard on female actors and portrays women harshly in a number of his films. Charlotte Gainsborough plays a woman who seems to be falling apart because of the death of her son, but may have had some darkness stewing before that. Willem Dafoe plays a manipulative psychologist husband who is trying to fix his wife, arguably so she conforms to his idea of grief. You can purchase Antichrist on iTunes and Amazon, or stream it on Netflix. NEXT WEEK:  Adam’s pick is up - the FX series, the Americans!

We talk about The Adventures of Tin Tin: The Secret of the Unicorn trailer and Lar Von Trier’s controversial joke-gone-wrong at Cannes.
