Before it became known that the Association of veterans of great Britain made claims against the crew of the film “transformers: the Last knight”. The reason for this was the conversion of the family estate of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill to the headquarters of Adolf Hitler. For several days the facade of Blenheim Palace located in Oxfordshire, was hung with large flags with the swastika. Everything else on the site was spotted military equipment of that time, and the actors in the form of the Waffen SS.
“Transformers 5”: shooting in the manor of Churchill, insulted the British veterans
Despite the fact that the scandal erupted in the middle of last week, the press it became known about it only now. It is known that the scenery hung at the Palace a couple of days, then they were dismantled. Longtime Director of the series “transformers” – Mike Bay – said, angry that makes no sense.
In an interview to the BBC, Bay explained that in the fifth part of “Transformers” Winston Churchill presented by hero:I just want to say that the representatives of the Association of veterans have not had the opportunity to read the script, so they don’t know that Churchill in the film – big hero. Churchill would have smiled, watching “Transformers 5”. They haven’t seen the movie, they don’t know how it ends, they do not know what role in the film will play Winston Churchill. So, as I said earlier, he would have smiled, watching her. When you watch the movie, you’ll understand. As for respect for veterans, I’m probably the only Director in the world, which constantly takes in his paintings and veterans, and active military personnel. I in no way could offend these people.”
Blenheim Palace is one of the largest Park complexes in the UK, it since 1987, is a monument a UNESCO world heritage site.
