China to increase foreign movies quota
The Chinese Bureau of Cinematography, which controls the national distribution, intends to increase the quota for foreign movies to 44 movies. This is reported by The Hollywood Reporter. The exact date of this event has not yet been announced, but most likely it will happen during the next Congress of People's Deputies, which will be held in March 2014. Recall that in February 2012, Chinese officials have already increased the quota from 20 movies to 34, most of which were supposed to be stereoscopic. We also note that the restrictions are often circumvented in a very original way. So the painting The Great Gatsby hit the Chinese screening, as it was recognized not by Hollywood, but Australian.
