Eskimo dance
Why do reviewers keep insisting the past was an innocent time? In the Eskimo dance the young women were gyrating in micro minis and boots not unlike later go-go dancers, then they stripped to panties and bras and gyrated some more, one of them apparently having sex with bananas and as this was a Freudian era with a lot of talk about repressed ideas...people knew what was going on. And finally in what appeared to be orgiasmic pleasure the women set the tropics on fire. They didn't call it the Roaring Twenties for nothing! lol And then the censors swept in like angry parents and broke up the party--for a while.
I have to wonder what would have happened to movies if they hadn't been muzzled and muted. Maybe we wouldn't have childish ideas about the past. I wish so many silents and early talkies hadn't been lost, too. That would have given us a better understanding. I watch as many pre Code movies as I can find.
