But whose fault is it?
The grim debate over whether it’s acceptable to edit older works of art to cater for modern ‘sensitivities’ has raised its head again with the discovery by eagle eyed film fans that at least two of the world’s most popular streaming services are running a version of a classic, Oscar-winning film with a sequence featuring two ethnic slurs completely cut out of it., if you haven’t seen it yourself) and famously ‘hard boiled’ 1971 thriller starring Gene Hackman, Fernando Rey and Roy Scheider.
The film clearly appears with an 18 rating attached to it on Apple TV, at least, so there can be no question, surely, of the edit being done with any ideas of protecting children from adult themes. Nor is there any suggestion in any of the information Apple TV or Criterion provide about the film to suggest that what you’re about to watch has been edited to remove ‘offensive language’.
This latter fact should, it seems to me, open the door to refunds being due to anyone who has paid to watch
