Not seen RASHOMON, ROMAN HOLIDAY, WITNESS FOR THE PROSECUTION, or the 400 BLOWS.

Claws- I think you would enjoy PATHS OF GLORY. It's early Kubrick. And devastating. A fantastic film.

Only until 1975.
Any film beyond child porn or snuff films should never be banned-that's evil.
Freedom of expression is not a " God given right".
It's just something that people are going to do-and will be debated- but to ban things does not help. You can't erase history and pretend it didn't happen because  it doesn't fit your sensibility.  It's still there.
This "ban" s**t should not extend into art.

Every time someone describes it, the plot seems a little bit different.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
