BEIJING: China has denied Walt Disney Co’s request to screen Christopher Robin in the country, a movie that features the honey-loving bear Winnie the Pooh (pic), a source familiar with the matter said.
It is unclear why China denied the film and Chinese authorities do not provide reasons to Hollywood studios when they reject their movies, the source said on Tuesday.
