More Rejections And Appeals

Last year, thirteen feature films, sixteen trailers two 16mm features and one short and nine television films were refused certificates of approval. Appeals were lodged in respect of four feature films and one television film. Two of the feature films rejected were later resubmitted after substantial re-editing and were approved in their amended form.

Appeals against the Censor's classification of the feature film Dark At The Top Of The Stairs and the short Polygamous Polonius were allowed while one against excisions required by the Censor in the feature My World Dies Screaming was dismissed. Appeals against his rejection of Girl's Town. The Pusher, This Rebel Breed and Peeping Tom were dismissed. The appeal against the rejection of the television film Jockey Underwear was allowed.

Appeals against the rejection of certain posters for the films Doctor In Love, Make Mine Mink and Hell To Eternity were allowed in whole or in part.
