Judi Dench on trigger warnings: “If you’re that sensitive, don’t go to the theatre”
Radio Times, Dench was taken aback by the suggestion, asking, “Do they do that? My god, it must be a pretty long trigger warning before King Lear or Titus Andronicus.”“I can see why they exist, but if you’re that sensitive, don’t go to the theatre, because you could be very shocked,” she added. “Where is the surprise of seeing and understanding it in your own way?”Other artists have shared similar sentiments on the subject, including Quentin Tarantino, who said that he does not see the need to accommodate viewers that may be offended by films.“I reject the word ‘offended’. Anyone can be offended by anything.
