Yeah, good observation! I think your guess sounds spot on. Decades ago I worked a local TV station and came across a reel of 16mm film stashed on a shelf… about 15 minutes long. It contained over a dozen short excerpts clipped from features, presumably for censorship reasons. The amazing thing was how utterly inoffensive everthing was; a conversation between a husband and wife, the woman sitting in a neck deep bubble bath or paul Newman drinking wine straight from the bottle. I thought at the time somewhere there are 16mm prints of these movies floating around, mildly mutilated — how disturbing!

There was an interesting edit in there - when Dog Face is in front of the judge, the judge is sudddenly holding a shot glass which he then throws away. I assume he poured himself a shot to clear his throat and drank it, but some prude cut it out of the print.

I’ll add that the itunes podcast section isn’t downloading them either.
