Cleanflix (2012)

Directors: Andrew James, Joshua Ligairi
Run Time: 85 min.

"No doubt many of you recall the hubbub that ensued several years back when a group of Mormon businessmen and video retailers began selling 'sanitized' versions of big Hollywood movies like Titanic. The Directors Guild Of America first protested then sued, arguing that no one’s allowed to bowdlerize their work without permission. . . . The real story isn't just about intellectual property; it's about the daily difficulties that the devoutly religious have in trying to participate in mainstream American culture while retaining as much of the purity of their own beliefs as they can."
—Scott Tobias and Noel Murray, A.V. Club
