Censorship

[edit]

When The Wreck of the Singapore was released, many states and cities in the United States had censor boards that could require cuts or other eliminations before the film could be shown. The Kansas censor board ordered a cut of an intertitle with the caption, "I'm dirtier inside than you are out."[2]
