Reception

Like many American films of the time, The Rose of Blood was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut in Reel 2 two scenes of a young man holding a bomb and the throwing of it and the intertitle "They still live, but next time", in Reel 5, the intertitle "Nothing less than death", in Reel 6, scenes of the shooting of the general and the servant doping the wine, and in Reel 7, five riot scenes including a soldier killing a young man and a soldier clubbing an old woman, the intertitle "When are you going to pay me?", two scenes of women taking bombs from a chest, and the lighting of the fuse.[3]
