Originally Published 2 years ago — by GB News
The British Film Institute (BFI) has issued trigger warnings for classic James Bond films and other movies from the 1960s, advising modern audiences that they may contain outdated and offensive content. The warnings, which apply to films like "You Only Live Twice" and "Goldfinger," note that the content reflected views prevalent at the time of release but may cause offence today. The decision has sparked debate, with some defending the historical context of the films and others acknowledging the problematic portrayals, particularly of women and cultural identities.
