The random bit of film controversy for the day.
TEXT:
As Variety reports, the production has shifted to Norway until the end of September. Tom Cruise has reportedly shelled out for two Norwegian cruise ships tallying a whopping $666,568 (USD). Apparently, the ships will be used to house the production’s crew, but according to two Norwegian unions, Fellesforbundet and Sjømannsforbundet, Norwegian cruise line Hurtigruten (who owns the cruise ships in question), has violated the Immigration Act. The unions allege that Filipino workers on board are only being paid $3.30/hr (USD) for their labor. Fellesforbundet leader Jørn Eggum stated:
“It is not okay to use a ship that is to go in international shipping as a hotel in Stryn, close your eyes, and hope no one will find out that the employees are not close to the pay and working conditions that are statutory.”
