Will The Chinese Balloon Incident Prohibit Future American Screenings Of The French Classic, "The Red Balloon?????????????????????????"



                                I mean, what are things coming to?  I am waiting for George Santos to say he was one of the extras in the railroad station wounded scene in "Gone With The Wind."  Yeah, right.



                                "The Red Balloon" is to France what "The Wizard Of Oz" is to the United States.  Both are iconic films about children, but with so much of this cancel culture crap going on, will the politicos try to appease the Chinese by disallowing showings of the French film?



                                   I don't think it will come to this; on the other hand, should it, I would not be at all surprised.  Like Dorothy Parker said about men attending the Harvard Prom.......




                                     Let's keep "The Red Boat" afloat, girls!  The little boy, who was the director's son, must be in his seventies by now, if he is still alive.  Indeed.



                                        Voici "Le Balloon Rouge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    the film business.
