Kundun by Martin Scorsese (1997) FHD 1080p full movie
Kundun is a 1997 American epic biographical film written by Melissa Mathison and directed by Martin Scorsese. It is based on the life and writings of Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, the exiled political and spiritual leader of Tibet. Tenzin Thuthob Tsarong, a grandnephew of the Dalai Lama, stars as the adult Dalai Lama, while Tencho Gyalpo, a niece of the Dalai Lama, appears as the Dalai Lama’s mother.
Before the film was released, China’s leaders hotly objected to Disney’s plans to distribute the film, including to the point of threatening Disney’s future access to China as a market. Disney’s steadfastness stood in stark contrast to Universal Pictures, which had earlier “turned down the chance to distribute Kundun for fear of upsetting the Chinese.“ Scorsese, Mathison, and several other members of the production were banned by the Chinese government from ever entering China as a result of making the film. China retaliated by banning Disney films and pulling Disney television cartoons.
Disney apologized in 1998 for releasing the film and began to “undo the damage“, eventually leading to a deal to open Shanghai Disneyland by 2016. Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner has apologized for offending Chinese sensitivities, calling the film “a stupid mistake.“ He went on to say, “The bad news is that the film was made; the good news is that nobody watched it. Here I want to apologize, and in the future we should prevent this sort of thing, which insults our friends, from happening.“
By 2015 Scorsese’s ban had apparently been lifted as he attended the premiere of his short film The Audition in Macau.
As of 2022, the movie is unavailable on U.S. streaming platforms. However, it was released on DVD and Blu-ray by Kino Lorber in 2019.
