| From the Wikipedia article: Newmarket paid one million dollars for the U.S. distribution rights. The film was screened in the U.S. for 14 days, showing at 143 theatres at its widest release. Regardless of where it was created, if there were such a prohibition, the film most certainly wouldn't have been shown in the US, nor anyone silly enough to pay for distribution rights. Note there were issues regarding screening, but it was some independent companies—not some government regulation—that made the decision not to screen it. All of this is evident from your parent comment. Why is it so important for you to press this particular point, even after you've said you would refer to the law later tonight? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13324076 I will look this up and come back with more information at a later time. If you are no longer willing to discuss this in good faith, please refrain from discussing it at all. I, for one, will not comment on this further. |
