Greek Filmmakers Organize Boycott Against Hollywood Films

26 March 2003 | From Studio Briefing | See recent Studio Briefing news

The Union of Greek Filmmakers is mounting a boycott of U.S. films to protest against U.S. policies in Iraq. The group said that it will hand out leaflets at movie theaters throughout the country urging Greeks to stay away from American-made films. Director Theo Angelopoulos, whose film Eternity and a Day won the 1998 Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, was quoted by the BBC Tuesday as saying that the boycott was not aimed at "American art" but at the "American attack against Iraq." The BBC observed that public sentiment in Greece is overwhelmingly in opposition to the U.S. invasion.
