> This added up to over one hour of deleted scenes, or nearly three full episodes of purely censored content

I would like to watch the edit of only deleted scenes strung together.

In the charming 1988 Best Foreign Film "Cinema Paradiso," set in a small pre-war Italian town, the projectionist has to preview every imported American film for the local priest, who sits and rings a bell at each scene containing a kiss so they can be spliced out before the paying audience arrives. Spoiler: In the heartwarming ending, the young boy who had befriended him comes back to town after the death of the projectionist, to find a gift has been left for him: A reel of film, which he projects for himself, and finds it's all the years of removed Hollywood kisses, spliced together one right after the other.

Great film, the projectionist is just a wonderful character.

I still think a lot about that story he tells with the princess and the soldier.
