I've only seen Scorsese's "Cape Fear" once, on a videocassette probably in the early 2000s rented from a video store. I could have sworn the scene where the ex-con De Niro beats & rapes Ileana Douglas's character had parts that were cut out -- it didn't seem like a clean edit in the film. I may watch it again on a movie website and compare, though my memory may not be reliable. I had a similar experience with my rental (again video cassette) of "The Hollow Man" wherein the rape scene between Kevin Bacon and Rhona Mitra seemed oddly abbreviated.
Is that, or was that, a thing -- for VCs and DVDs to censor movie scenes?
