Not sure about the other filmmakers but Tarkovsky was pretty much the establishment, a token avant garde cinema in a sea of state propaganda movies. Yes "Andrei Rublyov" was shelved, but that's about it, really.
Many others had some of their movies shelved for all kinds of reasons. Risking their lives? Well maybe, if you can consider mental breakdown, heart attack as risk.
But I bet Hollywood directors/actors risked their lives more by being in the same hotel room with Harvey Weinstein and his exposed puny dongle.
