In 2003, freaky New York City multitalent Vincent Gallo scandalized the Cannes Film Festival with the premiere of his three-hour-plus cut of The Brown Bunny.

Audiences jeered and stormed out, proclaiming the tale of Gallo’s heartsick anti-hero maddeningly boring -- despite of the fact that it climaxes (literally) with co-star Chloë Sevigny performing graphic lick-suck-and-swallow oral sex the movie's mastermind ... up-close, for real, and in a manner no other mainstream Hollywood actress has ever dared before or since.

Roger Ebert’s called it the worst film he’d ever endured at the fest. Gallo responded by “hexing” the beloved critic with colon cancer. However, Gallo also took the hoots to heart and released an edited version of the Brown Bunny -- which Ebert came to champion -- on this date in 2004.

Get a mouthful of Chloë after the jump.
