Censors tend to do what only psychotics do... they confuse reality with illusion. A friend of mine saw Videodrome, said he really liked it, and added, you know someday they're going to lock you up. [Suicide] ...it's probably the only way we can give our death a meaning, because otherwise it's completely arbitrary.
