Quentin Tarantino Holds Firm, Won't Recut ‘Once Upon a Time' for China
h/t Instapundit
[Variety] Quentin Tarantino will not recut "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" to placate Chinese censors, Variety has confirmed. The decision likely means that the Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt buddy dramedy and ode to late sixties Tinseltown won’t be making an appearance in China ‐ at least in non-pirated form.

#1 Harvey Weinstein produced every movie this piece of shit ever made. He knew. He knew damn well what was going on and he was OK with it.

#4 IMO, it's more a matter of the censors getting bribes from the video pirates, MM.

#5 Don't know if Quentin is holding to a principle or just pissed that someone would dare to give him orders.

#10 Then maybe that's the edit they want. Give them a copy done over by those deep fake guys. Stick Donnie Yen's face on his.
