Outraged over the unauthorized editing of their work, prominent filmmakers began to speak out, thrusting the two groups into an intense legal, theoretical, and moral battle that would last six years before coming to a shocking conclusion.

Add a CommentThis movie was entertaining and interesting but not one of my favorite for this year. Not too bad---good performance. I fast forwarded a lot but not all the way.
Interesting doc about censorship & artistic ownership with an almost unbelievable jaw dropping twist. I don't mean to be offensive folks but Mormons are a bit crazy (seriously what is the point of watching a violent film with the deaths cut out of it? I'm not defending or attacking films, or beliefs but seriously folks if watching sex or killing is against your religion, then chose other movies - because actually you don't have the right to remove the Matrix's body count because Mormon elders say don't watch any more than you'd have the right to remove the Mona Lisa's smile if it offended you.) They scare the crap out of me (they can be as fanatical and dangerous as the worst religious zealots of any stripe, they just hide it better.) Well worth watching. Here's the $64,000.00 question... Did he or didn't he?
