Reception

Like many American films of the time, Mary Moreland was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors cut an intertitle that stated "Don't you know that your wife is going to have a child?"[4]

gollark: rustc can totally self-compile. It can *only* self-compile.

gollark: ... no, I am to run my website and none else.

gollark: Just imagine I have it, that's basically as good.

gollark: Why do it manually? I made a C to Rust transpiler.

gollark: But our OS is optimized for dreams, where it can use more computing power via [REDACTED] colourless green processes.
