Report: Katie Holmes Elicits "Collective Groan" During Sundance Screening

First The Kennedys is dropped by the History Channel, now this!

Katie Holmes' latest indie movie, The Son of No One, had its first press/industry screening at Sundance on Monday and, according to the Hollywood Reporter, "enough regular audience members left early for one observer to describe it as an exodus."

Not only that, when one viewer tried to begin applauding after the film was over, no one joined in!

And according to Us, when Katie Holmes - on the set of Son of No One back in April 2010 in the pic to the right - showed up on screen, there was a "collective groan," a source says.

Ouch! Poor Katie.
