Censorship

Like many American films of the time, Lillo of the Sulu Seas was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Ohio Board of Censors required a cut of the scene where man puts drug into glass and pours wine on it, a cut to three feet all scenes showing men almost nude, cut of a fight scene to three feet, and all fight scenes in the third reel. The censor board of Paterson, New Jersey, banned the display of the posters for the film.
