Filmmaker Francis Lee has urged audiences to not stream his movie God’s Own Country on Amazon Prime, following claims that the film’s gay sex scenes were removed without his knowledge.
Since Lee tweeted about the apparent censorship, his film has been pulled down from free streaming on Amazon Prime.
“Dear friends in [the] USA,” Lee wrote on Twitter, “God’s Own Country appears to have been censored on Prime Video.
The 2017 British film stars Josh O’Connor and Alec Secăreanu as a pair of Yorkshire farmhands who fall in love.
