...The movie Last Tango in Paris starring Marlon Brando was released in Italy on December 15, 1972, grossing an unprecedented $100,000 in only six days. One week later, however, police seized all copies on the order of a prosecutor, who defined the movie as "self-serving pornography", and its director Bernardo Bertolucci was put to trial for "obscenity". On January 26, 1976 the Italian Supreme Court ordered all copies to be destroyed. Bertolucci was served with a four month suspended sentence in prison and had his civil rights revoked for five years. In 1987, fifteen years after the film's release, a new ruling allowed the film to be released in Italy.
