“Prohujalo s vihorom” se vraća u originalnom obliku s napomenom “političke korektnosti”: Cenzura klasika u ime novog doba

Oscarovski klasik Gone With The Wind iz 1939. nakon što je bio cenzuriran za prikazivanje na HBO Max nakon što su ga proglasili kontroverznim jer s današnjih pozicija prikazuje portretiranje Konfederacije i ropasta na južnjačkim američkim plantažama na način kako današnji borci za ljudska prava prikazuju nezadovoljavajućim jer su “romantizirali ropastvo”. Umjesto prvotne namjere neprikazivanja uopće, HBO napominje da će ga vratiti na TV uz upozorenje i “discussion of its historical context” koje će obaviti Jacqueline Stewart, profesorica Department of Cinema and Media Studies at the University of Chicago koja će objasniti povijesni kontekst filma.
“Still the highest-grossing film in history when adjusted for inflation, Gone with the Wind continues to have a profound impact on the ways mainstream audiences visualize the antebellum South and the Reconstruction period that followed the Civil War,” Stewart je naglasila ističući “Moreover, the classic films we showcase on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) have played a major role in perpetuating the racist beliefs that devalue Black lives and normalize the use of excessive force against Black people. Right now, people are turning to movies for racial re-education, and the top-selling books on Amazon are about anti-racism and racial inequality. If people are really doing their homework, we may be poised to have our most informed, honest and productive national conversations yet about Black lives on screen and off” zaključila je.
