Since we discuss film often, here's a list worth running down for Netflix suggestions. Missing a few titles, but pretty decent.

Top 10 Banned Films of the 20th Century.

I have seen only the #1. Possibly #8.

a lot on the list I did not know of, except in passing. I will have to look them up. The Last Tango in Paris is an amazing movie, too bad it's being passed as a controversial thing, it takes away from its artistic value.

 

[Oistrakh]

How about Salo directed by Pasolini?

 

[zotjen]

Mark of the Devil was also heavily banned.

"Buttah!"

How LTIP is any worse than your typical episode of HBO's Real Sex I'll never know.

Hmmn, the only one I've seen, and only bits and pieces of, was Birth of a Nation in a film class. It didn't seem like anything I would want to watch in entirety.

the last temptation of christ was a GREAT movie!, for all you head fi guys out there do yourself one heck of a favor and check out the soundtrack by peter gabriel, usually called passion, the history behind that is awesome too- how much money he sank into the equipment in the day to do it- now pro tools could do it but yeah

also last house on the left was not on there>???? that was banned in most countries

A Clockwork Orange, banned in the UK for years.

 

[cwell2112]

A couple of these are going right into my Netflix queue!

The only one I've seen is #9, All is Quiet on the Western Front. Watched it in 10th grade history class. Great movie. I highly recommend it.

I'm also quite surprised Salo isn't on there, along with Men Behind the Sun.

 

[classicalguy]

No mention of Salt of the Earth - a movie that was really banned for political reasons.

 

[NeObliviscaris]

I had #1, only watched a bit, didn't interest me!
