IMDB staff: Please delete the release date after failing to be refused many times

Dear IMDB staff, I need to delete the release date of China, because the final cut of this film was screened at the 6th Asia Chinese Film Festival, which was held in April-May of 2025. We have a press release in Chinese as evidence of this news. The website is here:https://ishare.ifeng.com/c/s/8jUGWgRjwGS https://ishare.ifeng.com/c/s/8jUGWgRjwGS The first press was posted on March 20, 2025, about the upcoming screening. The second one is the news about the film Face to Face finally winning the Outstanding Chinese Film Award at the Asia Chinese Film Festival. Modifying this date is very important for us, because we don't want the false information recorded in IMDB, which could mislead other people and influence our company's propaganda. Because I tried many times to delete it, but it failed. I appreciate it. Thank you very much!

Hi Jonas_Hu- Thank you for posting the links! Further reviewing, if a version of the title was screened in 2019, we will need to retain the release information, as per our policy. However, for the new version/final cut release in 2025, you can modify this release date by adding the applicable festival name and cut version as attributes. For further detailed information on Release Dates and re-releases, you are welcome to revie wour following Help Guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/release-dates/GVUUDEPJNAW6G35P?ref_=helpsrall#rerelease Cheers!

Hi Maya, literally, the film hasn’t finished in 2019 but just the trailer, not a whole version of film. Because of covid-19, the director quit the editing until 2024. What I meant of “the final cut” is the whole film not new version. Sorry that I let you misunderstand.

@Jonas_Hu- No problem! Thank you for the further clarification! We have further investigated and reviewed, we have now removed it. The changes will be live on the site shortly.
