Chinese ban Da Vinci Code movie

Ah, capitalism!

Wu Hehu, spokesman for Shanghai's United Cinema Line Corporation, said he received a notice to cease showing the film, but he did not know why the order was made.
"I don't know the reason. We just do what we are told to do."

This should put the lie to the myth of a Chinese free market...

China orders cinemas to stop showing The Da Vinci Code, weeks after it was released in the country.
