Kill People, not Donkeys

AFP:

Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier, who is putting the final touches on the sequel to his 2003 movie “Dogville”, has reportedly cut a scene showing the slaughter of a donkey after receiving heaps of protest mail.

According to Danish news agency Ritzau, the scene in “Manderlay” shows starving inhabitants of a small town slaughtering and quartering the animal. The donkey had been put to sleep by veterinarians before the scene was filmed.

As Drew Curtis points out, killing people in movies is still ok.
