Donald Trump’s biopic ‘The Apprentice’ has faced an issue that has troubled lovers of cinema for a long time. Before its release in India, the Central Board of Film Certification has suggested a few changes and cuts in the movie. And it has left the director Ali Abbasi frustrated.
The filmmaker has said, “I don’t know what the hell is wrong with these people! I ran away from Iranian censorship only to meet corporate censorship in the US. Now India! Really? Censorship seems to be an epidemic at the moment. We need a VACCINE”.
We have seen at the time of ‘Oppenheimer’ how the nude scenes of Florence Pugh were altered by putting a black cloth with the help of vfx. This is really disturbing for fans of cinema who want to experience a movie just as the director has intended to. It really needs a ‘vaccine’ as Ali Abbasi says. It is 2024 and there are multiplexes running With specific certifications denying children access to adult films, still the stigma around Intimacy and sex is unnatural.
‘The Apprentice’ will probably be released With the suggested cuts and to watch the movie in the original version people will have to wait for it to come to OTT. This will reduce the high regard that people hold for theatrical experience.
