In 1921 when The Night Rose was released, many American cities and states had enacted their own film censorship laws. Because of its crime plot, The Night Rose was subjected to censorship, and was the first film rejected in whole by the recently created New York State Motion Picture Commission which it condemned "as highly immoral and of such character that its exhibition would not only tend to corrupt morals, but to incite crime." Goldwyn appealed the decision to New York state court, with upheld the commission's decision on November 18, 1921. Goldwyn then came to an agreement with the state commission to edit the film, which removed many of the Chaney scenes and renamed his character from O'Rourke to Duke McGee. The film was re-released in early 1922 under the title Voices of the City.
