Sam Mendes asked Netflix and Amazon to save culture
acclaimed Hollywood director, screenwriter and producer Sam Mendes has called on major streaming services to help save UK rentals. According to the director, who is quoted by Deadline, he has a plan that should be implemented together. Mendes believes that the British entertainment industry is facing the worst crisis since the Second World War. “The country's cinemas and actors, musicians and music venues, dancers and dance floors, concert halls and opera houses are at risk.

If so, I hope that you are reading this and can think of the cultural landscape as more than just a "content provider", as an ecosystem that supports us all, "he said.
