Sky adds 'outdated attitudes' disclaimer to some classic films


Sky Cinema, the broadcasting giant's movie service, has issued a disclaimer to its subscribers that some of its content 'has outdated attitudes, languages and cultural depictions which may cause offence today'. The same disclaimer was also added to the 2016 live-action remake of The Jungle Book and the 2019 Aladdin movie. But the broadcaster later removed the warning from the Aladdin remake, saying that it was a mistake. The 1939 romance Gone With The Wind, set in the south during the American Civil War and Reconstruction, has been issued with a disclaimer. A spokesperson from Sky said the film contains the disclaimer because it features a non-Hispanic actress playing the role of an Hispanic character.
