Public kissing was greatly frowned upon during the Victorian
era, when this scene was produced in Thomas Edison's new glass-topped
studio in New York City. As a result, the movie was banned in most

"sparkin'" if it took place inside (usually in the parlor), or
"spoonin'" if committed outdoors in a lonely spot in a "lover's lane. Back Home in the Village.
