All Movie Theaters in China Must Now Screen Propaganda Films at Least Twice a Week
Officials in China have ordered theaters to screen propaganda movies for the 100th anniversary of the Communist Party s founding.
A new report announced that Chinese movie theaters are being ordered to show propaganda movies, per a new order by authorities in the country. This is significant for several reasons, not the least of which being that China is now right there with the U.S. as one of the biggest moviegoing markets in the world.

Golden Globe-winning Nomadland sparks outrage in China
A nationalist backlash to Golden Globe-winning American road movie Nomadland has cast doubt over the film s China release after social media users and state media questioned its director Chloe Zhao s loyalty to her birth country.
Zhao became the first Asian woman in history to win the best director Golden Globe and the first woman to win best drama with the semi-fictional film, which stars Oscar winner Frances McDormand alongside a rag-tag bunch of non-actors living on the open road in the American West.
Zhao s win last week was initially celebrated in China, with state media calling the Beijing-born filmmaker a Chinese female director and the pride of China.
