Reception
Like many American films of the time, The Band Master was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut, in Reel 1, scene of dough dropping from West after he sits in the pan, Reel 2, two scenes of West kicking woman, two scenes of West dropping trousers, two scenes of West bumping woman, and West expectorating into telephone receptical (with figure of woman).[1]

gollark: Of course, it doesn't actually tell you what components are *good*, since that's kind of out of scope.
gollark: There is a lot of relevant knowledge in choosing parts, but generally you can offload it onto someone else.
gollark: I mean, preloading adware shows a general disregard of the consumer's desires.
