Ha, ha.................I've never seen Oh! Calcutta (I was only 17) - but I remember the public outcry when it was first released in London and the authorities tried to have it banned for being obscene.

Here is an extract from the Wikipedia article which really amused me :

"The 1970 production at The Roundhouse, London, attracted the attention of the Metropolitan Police's Obscene Publications Squad, which sent two officers to a preview of the show. One of the officers returned twice more, before recommending a prosecution under the Theatres Act 1968 for obscenity. The Director of Public Prosecutions sent its panel of experts, including two retired headmistresses, to see The Roundhouse production. Their judgement that it was not obscene enabled it to transfer to London's West End."

If nothing else, it got them some great publicity!

Also ganz ehrlich jetzt. An die Aussicht vom Empire State kann ich mich noch immer erinnern, an die nackten Hintern kein bisschen. Naja, inzwischen habe ich ja kein Empire State mehr gesehen, aber.................
