Mebbe start worrying about the digital future?


Recommended Posts

With the recent story of undisclosed censorship in the American streaming version of the The French Connection, this whole deal sounds like a breeding ground for altered history. And if you think people are just going to up and do research for themselves of course not.

I don’t know the details of the French connection so called censorship, but streaming services being shitty is why I’m strongly considering creating my own personal cloud starting from physical media that I own.

Gene Hackman's character says something like "Never trust a n-----" at one point and they cut that out of the Max version.

I ripped my whole physical collection years ago and then spent years on the Netflix disc plan ripping those too to a USB raid cabinet plugged into a computer running a Plex server.  Physical media kind of slowly dying along with the soon death of the Netflix disc plan means my personal library is now being supplemented on the high seas via a Swiss VPN.

As long as Gene Hackman doesn't get censored in the superior movie, The Quick and the Dead, I'm fine with it.

 

He retired after appearing in his true opus Welcome to Mooseport because he knew he'd never do better.  After a long career he finally took a part that would never be matched.
