abstract
  • The Production Code, better known as the Hays Code, guided the morals of Hollywood films from 1930 to 1968. Passed in response to a series of scandals involving drug use, profanity and sex (mainly sex), the code was the final arbiter of what was acceptable on screen. At the time, many believed shocking films portraying liberated women, self-respecting black people and the contours of the human body made the code necessary. Experts agree that the strict guidelines probably set the industry back 30 years, hindering the development of the teen-sex comedy, the animated film that sells toys and the Pauly Shore oeuvre.
