As we all know, China's radio and television in terms of cultural dissemination is very strict, almost all movies or TV series released in China must go through strict censorship to be allowed to be broadcast on TELEVISION, however, the network environment is relatively relaxed, the censorship of online dramas is relatively loose, but in recent years, the national radio and television control of the network has gradually become stricter.
Foreign works want to be released in Chinese mainland, it is bound to comply with China's regulations, many excellent foreign works can not be introduced into China because of cultural differences, or after the introduction, they are deleted and reduced, losing their original appearance, so that the audience is confused, and a Dutch film and television work "Black Book" is a typical example.
The film tells the story of the heroine, Alice, as a German Jew, who watches her family being killed and goes through in order to find the murderer and help the Resistance to victory. Set in the late second of World War II, the film tells the story of German tyranny and Jewish helplessness through many fierce confrontations.
In the film, Alice does not hesitate to sell her body to achieve her own goals, she pretends to be with a German officer, in fact, just to eavesdrop on the movements of the German army, but she provides many intelligence to the Resistance without success, and is eventually assassinated by the Resistance.
In this movie, there is inevitably a lot of erotic and bloody content, these contents are set up to promote the development of the story, essential, but after being introduced by our country, it is worried that these contents will cause a bad impact, so some of the content is deleted as appropriate, such as killing people, dew point shots, although some are only deleted for a few minutes, but still affect the audience's understanding of the film to a certain extent.
"Black Book" this movie has achieved a good box office as soon as it was released abroad, because it really shows us through Alice's story the cruel rule of the Nazis at that time, the wisdom and pathosity of the Jews, and to a certain extent, criticizes the horrors of war and gives people a warning.
However, after its release in China, the response was mediocre, partly because the content of the film involved World War II, and the Chinese people did not have a strong sense of resonance, and partly because some of the content was deleted after its release in China, so that the story of the film was connected to problems, and it was difficult for the audience to guess the development of the story.
And at the end of the film, they are liberated in the end, but it is not the kind of ending that Alice wants, and to a certain extent, it is also a tragic film, telling Alice's life full of tragedy and irony.
