Courtney McCoy Dr. Kyler English 112 12 October 2012 Change in Iranian Film after the Iranian Revolution While attending a Catholic school for twelve years, censorship was common to have ideas agree with the Catholic faith. Every year, my high school held touch of class day where the seniors produced a video. The principal and president approved the final cut of the video. When scenes were shot for the video, teachers oversaw the process. To a greater extent, this same process developed in the Iranian film industry after the Iranian Revolution in the 1970s. After the revolution, Islamic leaders censored movies to fit an Islamic mold that would not corrupt viewers and the role of women changed to be in the background of films or eliminated all together.
