9. I tried to pull up the NY Times review of it
but the site was too slow to retrieve it, so I gave up on them.

It was a silent film - but yeah, maybe they had that cheesy porn music over top of the action.

34. Seems innocent enough
Summary: After libertine "Broadway Al" Campbell sees college girl Mary Kane do a Grecian dance during commencement ceremonies, he tries to seduce her but is repulsed. He then has her invited to a midnight Roman feast where he attempts to shine an X-ray through her light dance costume to embarrass her. She locks herself in a dressing room to avoid him, and he has a heart attack as he chases her. On his deathbed, Campbell makes out a will leaving one dollar to his son and the rest of his fortune to "his little sweetheart" Mary, to disgrace her. Although she refuses the money when he dies, her friends and father shun her. She takes a new name and goes West where she falls in love with a man whom she later discovers is Campbell's son. When she confesses her identity, the son, after almost rejecting her, accepts her as she convinces him of her innocence.

31. Wasn't 1919 BEFORE the Hays Code???
I'm just saying....:think:


ahem....

1930

II. Sex
The sanctity of the institution of marriage and the home shall be upheld. Pictures shall not infer that low forms of sex relationship are the accepted or common thing.

1. Adultery, sometimes necessary plot material, must not be explicitly treated, or justified, or presented attractively.

2. Scenes of Passion

a. They should not be introduced when not essential to the plot.

b. Excessive and lustful kissing, lustful embraces, suggestive postures and gestures, are not to be shown.

c. In general passion should so be treated that these scenes do not stimulate the lower and baser element.

3. Seduction or Rape

a. They should never be more than suggested, and only when essential for the plot, and even then never shown by explicit method.

b. They are never the proper subject for comedy.

4. Sex perversion or any inference to it is forbidden.

5. White slavery shall not be treated.

6. Miscegenation (sex relationships between the white and black races) is forbidden.

7. Sex hygiene and venereal diseases are not subjects for motion pictures.

8. Scenes of actual child birth, in fact or in silhouette, are never to be presented.

9. Children's sex organs are never to be exposed.
