Specificatii
Pre-Code Hollywood explores the fascinating period in American
motion picture history from 1930 to 1934 when the commandments of
the Production Code Administration were violated with impunity in a
series of wildly unconventional films--a time when censorship was
lax and Hollywood made the most of it. Though more unbridled,
salacious, subversive, and just plain bizarre than what came
afterwards, the films of the period do indeed have the look of
Hollywood cinema--but the moral terrain is so off-kilter that they
seem imported from a parallel universe. In a sense, Doherty avers,
the films of pre-Code Hollywood are from another universe. They lay
bare what Hollywood under the Production Code attempted to cover up
and push offscreen: sexual liaisons unsanctified by the laws of God
or man, marriage ridiculed and redefined, ethnic lines crossed and
racial barriers ignored, economic injustice exposed and political
corruption assumed, vice unpunished and virtue unrewarded--in sum,
pretty much the raw stuff of American culture, unvarnished and
unveiled. No other book has yet sought to interpret the films and
film-related meanings of the pre-Code era--what defined the period,
why it ended, and what its relationship was to the country as a
whole during the darkest years of the Great Depression... and
afterward.
