What if the 1934 Production Code hadn’t been implemented?


If the censorship code hadn’t muzzled studios, how far do you think they would have taken sex, nudity and violence?

You think we would have had full nudity and bloody violence in the 40s or 50s vs waiting until the late 60s?

And how do you think the majority of audiences would have reacted? Accepted or rejected it?

Maybe for a niche audience, like what happened with b-movies later. No so much for mainstream movies, because back then people, especially women, would consider such movies indecent.
