MOSCOW — Children under age 16 won’t be able to go to the new Disney film “Beauty and the Beast” in Russia because it includes a gay character, the Russian Culture Ministry said Tuesday.

In a letter released Saturday by the RIA Novosti news agency, Milonov protested the screening of a movie that disseminates “overt and shameless propaganda of sin and sexual perversion under the guise of a fairy tale.”

As always, the homo agenda is involving children.
It’s good to see there is still some civility left somewhere on the planet.

Classic cinema.
And who ever would have thought we’d live to see that day?!?!
I wish Russia would just ban the damn movie altogether in russia- send a loud clear message to disney that their homofascist propaganda agenda isn’t going to be tolerated
Hey. I bet you didn’t see the movie.
Cause Candlesticks don’t HAVE anal passages.
Sure, bring reality into a discussion about a movie with talking cups and teapots.
There goes the magic.
Sorry to be your buzzkill on your vivid table setting sex fantasy! ;)
Classic SINema.
