Censorship In American Cinema

Trace the evolution of Hollywood’s depiction of morality by examining films from the daring years of 1930s film to the restrictive Hays Code period (1930-1968). Through lectures, film screenings, and discussions, we’ll explore how filmmakers navigated and challenged shifting rules, pushing the boundaries of American filmmaking.
