Censorship
When For Love and Others was first released in Italy in 1960 the Committee for the Theatrical Review of the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities rated it as VM16: not suitable for children under 16. The reason for the age restriction, cited in the official documents, was that the episodes featured prostitution and erotic scenes.[2] In addition the committee imposed the removal of the following scene: 1) reel 8 – dialogue on page 5 and 6 – from Flessing's line: "...yes, I have been told already today..." to line: "Freddy, I'm on my way..."; 2) reel 10 – dialogue on page 4 and 5 – from Freddy's line: "I love frills" to Backside's line: "Freddy, kill the light...".[3] The official document number is: 31818, it was signed on 29 April 1960 by Minister Domenico Magrì.[4]
