Fearing that banning the film would mean that censors would also have to "ban Renaissance art" the film was released, with Munson in the nude scenes and a stand-in doing the acting. (Munson had previously been "America's First Supermodel" and posed nude as the model for many famous artworks.) The film was a hit with audiences.

The U.S. Department of Justice "red hunt" netted thousands of "radicals" and suspected "communists" and aliens were deported.
