one scene is removed.
It is the scene where the prince and the other noble men are hunting a fox (Czech version
min. 40-41). In the Czech version, the prince shoots and laughs loud, then there is the fox
which tries to take out the arrow, a man grabs the fox by her tail, everybody rejoices, the
prince jumps down the horse, puts a twig on fox’s wound by his sword (a hunting ritual), and
places the sword back into the scabbard, and the man congratulates the prince by shaking his
hand. In the Norwegian version, already the laughter is removed, and so is the picture of the
suffering fox and the hunting ritual. The final cut does not make much sense as the prince is
holding the crossbow while riding a horse and suddenly, he is standing with a sword in his
hand.
This scene was removed because it was thought to be too ‘harmful’ for children in
Norway. This scene is also the reason why the film is marked as ‘censorship red’ in the
historical documents. Interestingly, the German side of the coproduction also wanted to
remove the scene. In the end, it was decided to keep the scene in both the Czech and German
versions.103

From a Norwegian source
– Det er en brutal scene hvor en rev blir skutt i skogen, og som forsøker å dra pilen ut av kroppen. Det er forståelig at de tok den bort på 70-tallet
