Leff, “A Test of American Film Censorship,”
Cinema Journal
, op. cit., p. 52. Leff's piece offers a fascinating and valuable account of the internal workings of the National Catholic Office for Motion Pictures, which rated films in the mid-1960s based on the combined input of two subgroups, the International Federation of Catholic Alumnae (IFCA) and a newly enlisted council of secular educators and businesspeople called the “Consultants.” The Consultants outnumbered the IFCA members three to one. Although a majority of IFCA voters wanted
Virginia Woolf
condemned, the Consultants group, which had been assembled only in 1965, voted for the “A-IV” rating and carried the day.
