There was previously discussion about Russell Brand denying allegations that were to be shown in a TV documentary, and now things are developing.

    What is a movie without its cultural interpretation by the people watching it?

        The point is that as culture evolves the experience of cultural artifacts changes. Consider for example any Woody Allen movie.

            For many people his movies became unwatchable because of his absurd behavior. The physical movie was unchanged, it’s cultural existence was revised from the future.

            Cultural evolution can change all sorts of cultural artifacts. Not always in a negative way either.

            Here’s another clear example, (also negative) Gone With the Wind morphed from beloved classic to unwatchable racist nonsense.

            Cultural artifacts are not static entities frozen in time.
