Line 47: ==Reaction== The film is considered a favorite among [[French New Wave]] film makers, according to filmmaker/historian [[Peter Bogdanovich]]. This film had one of the longest "preproductions" of any Hitchcock film, with almost 12 writers working on the script for Hitchcock over an eight-year period. (Hitchcock had taken time off for the wedding of his daughter [[Patricia Hitchcock]] in 1951, and Hitchcock was in the midst of dissolving his partnership in [[Transatlantic Pictures]] with [[Sidney Bernstein]].) The orignal screenplay had the priest and his lover having a baby out of wedlock, and the priest being executed at the end of the film. These aspects of the script were removed due to the [[Production Code]]. <ref>[http://books.google.com/books?id=Bf5l0qtZabMC&pg=PA456&lpg=PA456&dq=david+duncan+the+bramble+bush&source=bl&ots=U8psC0NI4c&sig=3EM1D6BRMmJQou9rE3kkGA1GlmQ&hl=en&ei=fxC-TIfDDoyqsAPSpqD7DA&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CCUQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=david%20duncan%20the%20bramble%20bush&f=false Patrick McGilligan, ''Alfred Hitchcock: A Life in Darkness and Light'' (2002) via Google Books]</ref> The film was [[Censorship in the Republic of Ireland\|banned in Ireland]] because it showed a priest having a relationship with a woman (even though, in the movie, the relationship takes place before the character becomes a priest).<ref>[http://www.irishfilm.ie/cinema/fsdispfilm_07.asp?SID=71&filmID=4465 IrishFilm website]</ref>
