Reception
Like many American films of the time, The Pride of New York was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors required cuts of the two intertitles "A very small percentage of these young men enlisted because of a desire for comfort rather than patriotism" and "Kill the men and help yourself to the women", closeup of German officer striking man's wounded foot, first two struggle scenes between German officer and nurse in living room, German officer unfastening sword and belt, attempting to unfasten coat, taking coat off, all struggle scenes between German officer and nurse in room where bed is shown including taking nurse to room and excluding other young woman, and the struggle between German officer and young woman on couch.[4]
