Censorship has a knack of making things that much more trashy.

I must admit, the only time I've seen real porn on a non-pay TV was on the French German cultural channel Arte. But the Realm of Senses is much more than porn. It's a love story

I did not know all cable channels could show anything they wanted, though it makes sense, yo do pay for it in some way. Yesterday they were giving terminator II in USA, and tey cut out a lot of the bloodier action, and certainly all the curse words.

As for showing Schindler List uncut, some big sponsor paid for th whole thing, and since it was a 'repectable Holocaust film', they could get away with it with only minor complaints from the real dimwitted.

Yeah, only the broadcast networks are subject to the FCC rules, apparently.

Tired of ads?

I think I once read a tirade about some officer's topless mistress being in Schindler's List and how it was evil of Spielberg. Dunno. I haven't seen the movie myself, nor am I ever planning to.
