I agree with you on staged sexual violence as long as its not designed to be a 'turn on' but part of the story, but fail to see how the animal scenes in Holocaust offended you if sexual violence didn't .
Surely exploiting one of the most terrible things that can happen to a women or man, violent rape , and pushing the censor to the point were the interpretation of it is that offensive it has to be banned, is far worse than showing a monkey being killed for the purpose they were intended, food.
Monkey's etc are the stable diet of some indegious tribes of the Amazon and the filming of them going about their everyday task of killing such food is not IMO cruel, just life.
The animals weren't tortured, they were killed and eaten much quicker than they would be in a 'civilized' werstern world slaughterhouse .
I agree the that staged animal fight scenes should be banned as that is cruel but theres no cruelty in natives hunting and killing their prey.
