This Film Is Not Yet Rated
The Observer: "The cinema and censorship have gone hand-in-hand, manacled together since movies were first exhibited. The first Lumiere shows in Paris in 1895 shocked audiences with a train seeming to come thundering towards them. But it took a screening in Chicago the following year of two middle-aged actors re-creating their gentle kiss from a popular Broadway comedy to incite disgust and a call for this 60 seconds of celluloid osculation to be banned."
