    Funny enough that's actually a plot point in the widely-lauded Italian film "Cinema Paradiso"

    The local priest owns the cinema and has all the displays of romance cut out of the films they show.

      spoiler

      Salvatore comes back to Rome, watches Alfredo's reel and discovers it comprises all the romantic scenes that the priest had ordered Alfredo to cut from the movies; Alfredo had spliced the sequences together to form a single unreduced film of aching desire and lustful frenzy
