So if he can't make films in China, why is he allowed to make films anywhere? I suppose that the Chinese government can't really stop him from making movies in other places in the world, but it seems rather petty that they are making a big deal about this. It really shows the power that theatre and film and the arts in general have over the people of a country given that they won't even consider showing it anymore.
