The police of Japan did not like to see kissing in public, and, therefore, film stars are not permitted to osculate on the screen. In six months up to March 1 the police censors removed 2,350 kisses from the films.
Only one kiss was allowed to remain. It was a kiss granted to Columbus by Queen Isabella and was shown in Tokyo only, as the censors deleted it before permitting the photoplay "Columbus" to appear in the provinces.
Three hundred and fifty-three embraces were omitted from films, states the Far East. The titles of 2,141 photoplays were altered by the censors and 127 murder scenes were killed. Reels entirely prohibited numbered 57.
Most films shown in Japan are from America and a large proportion of them originally contain a little kiss or so, showing the difference in standard between the East and West
