This is very disappointing because if it's the scene I'm thinking about I'm pretty sure the BBFC would have passed it because it's edited in such a way that you can't tell if the real animal was subjected to any cruelty - I suspect it wasn't.
Anyway, for Eureka not to even try to get it through is inexplicable. I can only think that it must be more expensive for the distributor if the BBFC mandates the cuts? |
The BBFC site says Eureka chose to make cuts in accordance BBFC Guidelines, policy, and the Video Recordings Act, 1984, which applies the standards of the Cinematograph Films (Animals).
I'd say the BBFC told theme they could choose to cut it or not get a certificate.
