Reception

Like many American films of the time, The Passing of Hell's Crown was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors required a cut of the branding of cattle, seven shooting scenes between the sheriff and outlaws, and the shooting of Chuck by Blaze.[1]

gollark: I use PID control in a bunch of flight control code for Minecraft. It works quite well.
gollark: I mean, you'd have to program it to or train it on those, but it isn't impossible.
gollark: Good, because neural networks are excellent at that.
gollark: But right now, at least, it isn't very capable of generally intelligent stuff, which is probably for the best.
