A screening of Last Tango in Paris, which features a rape scene filmed without the consent of actress Maria Schneider, has been canceled at the renowned Cinémathèque française in Paris. The decision came after a wave of criticism from women's rights groups, the cinema announced.
The Cinémathèque, a film archive and cinema partly funded by the French state, announced the decision to cancel the 15 December screening of Last Tango in Paris in order "to calm tensions and in light of potential security risks".
