Famous Movies That Have Been Banned All Over the World

The Battle of Algiers

This movie was created to mock the French intentions behind the Algerian War in the late 1950s through the 60s. The French government banned it because of its pro-Algerian message. But, after 6 years (when the French got what they wanted from the impoverished North African territory), France unbanned the film.
