Censorship of moving images rests on criteria that are very heterogeneous, but there are some constant features in the ways they are censored. From ideas of safeguarding the trial to scandal to scholarly controversy, certain films have met with a stormy reception in France and the United States. This article examines the way censorship has been applied, concentrating on differences in the way films are received even when the subject matter is similar. It also presents how films get past the censors or get round censorship. Finally, by making a distinction between denouncer and whistleblower, this article attempts to understand the motivations of individuals and groups who, by diverse means, attempt to prevent films coming out and being shown.
