This film (dir. Jarmusch, and starring Johnny Depp, Robert Mitchum, Gabriel Byrne and John Hurt) has been refused classification in Australia. I'm curious to know whether anyone has seen it, and whether it has met with classification problems in any other country? I think this question has come up before, but can anyone remind me of early precedents of the tactical inclusion of censorable scenes in the expectation that cutting them will protect the rest of the movie? (_Casino_ is apparently one recent example). Thanks Kate Bowles Screen Studies University of Wollongong ---- To signoff SCREEN-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF SCREEN-L in the message.
