Listen "Hollywood's Hays Code"
Episode Synopsis
The Hollywood Hays Code, enforced from the 1930s to the late 1960s, imposed strict moral guidelines on American films, banning depictions of crime, sexuality, and "immorality." Created to preserve public decency and counter Hollywood's scandalous reputation, it shaped the tone and content of countless movies for decades. While it stifled artistic freedom, it also forced filmmakers to use subtlety, symbolism, and wit to navigate censorship. DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE AND LEAVE A RATING OR A REVIEW!
