Reception
Like many American films of the time, The Branded Man was subject to restrictions and cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut, in Reel 1, two scenes of heating iron and closeup of hot iron approaching man, second attack scene on Ewing, three holdup scenes, Reel 2, dividing spoils, holdup of man in cabin, two scenes of taking money in cabin, and shooting at the posse.[1]
gollark: The European *Commission* controls sharks, though.
gollark: The dolphins are secretly controlled by the European Parliament, everyone knows that...
gollark: Though I personally dislike the sun more. It's annoyingly bright, and makes it hard to see my phone screen out doors.
gollark: Using nice filenames for my meme library was such a great decision, since I can find and upload a particular meme in just a few second now.
gollark: Fair, fair.
