The Underrated Brad Pitt Netflix True Story Adventure That Deserves More Attention

Pitt’s performance is sincere, and while it’s only two hours and 16 minutes for the audience, it took up half a year of his life. The actor said it was a life-changing experience. We’d say so!

He was actually banned from entering China in the wake of the film. The People’s Republic of China was unhappy with the movie’s negative depiction of Chinese military officers, as well as the positive portrayal of the 14th Dalai Lama. Brad Pitt, David Thewlis, and Director Jean-Jacques Annaud were all banned from entering the country.

However, the ban seems to be flexible since Pitt would later go on to visit China on two separate occasions. One of those times being with then-love Angelina Jolie.
