- History
In the second part of a two part episode me and my guests get into how China has influenced Bond and Hollywood. China has influenced Hollywood artistically with the explosion of Kung Fu film and its influence on action movies today. China in modern times has influenced Hollywood in a much more hidden way. The China movie market has finally had the door cracked open to American film and that has come with a price. Scripts, actors, social media, and film portrayal of China all has to go through a rigorous process of being vetted by the Ministry of Propaganda. This kowtowing to China may not seem like a big deal, but how far is Hollywood willing to go? Learn the history of the Chinese Communist Party and how China became a quasi-communist regime. Join myself and Thomas Felix Creighton from FlemingNeverDies as we delve into the complexity of this complicated regime.
