I remember Sixteen Candles being shown at my high school. The vice principal was in the projection booth turning down the volume or putting his hand over the lens at the "objectionable" moments.
What were those, anyway?
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That's what I was thinking, but then I remembered that was in The Breakfast Club. Was there pot in Sixteen Candles too?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I think there was a scene in the girls shower that got the hand over the lens treatment. The other stuff was just language.

I don't envy the person working the volume control to censor a movie that featured a character named Long Duk Dong.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
There was the wierd scene of Long Duck Dong and his tall and large-breasted girlfriend making on onan exercise bicycle with his face in her bosom that has stayed with me for many years.

Ann, that's a ferret.
When I was in early grades, we'd often be treated to a non-educational movie on the last day of school. In 7th grade, it was a Dracula movie. One of the Christopher Lee ones, I think.
