Elderly farmers' wives shown erotic film by mistake
A Dutch cinema owner accidentally screened an erotic film to a group of elderly farmers' wives.
Dirk Holemans ordered Michael Haneke's La Pianiste instead of Roman Polanski's Oscar-winner The Pianist.
The farmers' wives expected to see Polanski's harrowing depiction of the holocaust, but instead sat through Haneke's film about a female piano teacher who is addicted to porn and fantasises about sadistic sex.
Mr Holemans, who runs Cinema Hollywood in Winschoten, said: "I noticed too late it was pure porno. But in order not to spoil the ladies' evening I went on with it."
Hilly Klappe, chairwoman of the ladies group which rents out the cinema once a month, said they had a very amusing evening.
"We found it very interesting to see men can hold on for such a long time," she joked to Algemeen Dagblad.
But Holemans said he still felt embarrassed and had offered the ladies free tickets to see the right film.
