From that Miracle of Morgan's Creek wiki :mrgreen:
Critic James Agee, writing in The Nation, noted that "the Hays office has either been hypnotized into a liberality for which it should be thanked, or has been raped in its sleep"[30] to allow the film to be released.[31]

Apparently, The Buccaneer is also still with Paramount.

My guess is that's because Paramount remade their own 1938 film in 1958, so retained the rights to it.
