Morally Offensive

What Makes a Film “Morally Offensive”?

Two ex-Catholics ask this question every other week as they tackle the list of films “Condemned” or considered “Morally Offensive” by the Catholic Legion of Decency (RIP) and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. Not just a film podcast, hosts Bill and Cisco bring their mutual ex-Catholic backgrounds into play as they evaluate movies—from all-time cinematic heavyweights to films that were written off as “trash” upon their release. Each week, they explore the production history of these movies while also exploring topics relevant to their ex-Catholic backgrounds. Not just for former Catholics, Morally Offensive is a podcast for anyone interested in film history and the history of censorship in the United States.
