Less fun fact: When Disney put that movie up on Disney+ they for no justifiable reason started splicing and cutting the original version to add CGI to censor things out of the movie for "modern sensibilities" and then sold it as the same product without any warning.

I am much less afraid of the authoritarian who would ban 1984 from being read, and much more afraid of those authoritarians who take it to heart and take out all the "controversial" things and leave a completely declared and neutered 1984+ on the shelf.

Can someone use plain words to explain what happened here? Were pubes visible or something and they CGI'ed them out?

Never heard of this movie or anything about it but trying to piece it together from context clues in this thread is very confusing.

I just looked it up: Apparently there was a scene where the actresses butt was visible, which got covered by CGI hair extensions.

However, the movie has since gotten a 4K remaster on D+, which does not censor da booty.
