China blacklists actress Tang Wei

Tang Wei is a actress in the famous movie, Lust and Caution. Last month she was blacklisted by SARFT, which is China's State Administration of Radio and Television. I guess it is a kind of censoring department.

I don't know the exact meaning of 'Blacklisted' in China. I guess she cannot be in any movie in China anymore, according to the whole article; kind of expelling.

The reason why she is banned is "(she is) Beautifing Japaness collaborators." I have strong opinion that the basic idea is exclusive nationalism.
