Es interesante (y muy significativo de todo lo que está ocurriendo) el último párrafo del artículo de Variety sobre Jojo Rabbit, la película satírica sobre Hitler dirigida por Taika Waititi, y que Fox Searchlight presentará este otoño en Toronto de cara a la temporada de premios. Según el artículo, algún que otro ejecutivo de Disney ha tenido ciertos problemas al verla, declarando que el film quizás sea “demasiado alienante para los fans de Disney”

The only bright spot for the film operation would seem to be Fox Searchlight, the long-operating darling of the indie film world, which will test Disney’s patience with the wacky Hitler drama “Jojo Rabbit,” from “Thor: Ragnarok” director Taika Waititi, this fall. The movie is expected to be a major awards contender.

The scathing takedown of Nazism may, however, prove a little too edgy for Disney brass accustomed to producing movies suitable for parents and kids. Searchlight has started to screen the film for its new parent company. Halfway through one recent viewing one executive grew audibly uncomfortable, worrying aloud that the material would alienate Disney fans. His unease may have been over the film’s cutting-edge satire, but it was also an expression of the culture clash taking place as the two studios embark on their new union.

En fin...

Un saludo.
