The New York Times asked the producer to revise the ad to avoid skirt lifting. The archdiocese has not filed a formal complaint though it reports many calls. Publicist Nancy Seltzer says the ad is not a scene from the film and aims to humorously reference wiretapping as the Watergate story unfolds in a fictional Philadelphia nunnery.
