Podcasts about Motion Picture Production Code

In 1936, Pope Pius XI published his encyclical on the motion picture, Vigilanti cura. The encyclical deals with the grave moral concerns raised by the cinema, which had by then become a ubiquitous social influence (though it was also a still-evolving medium, as the transition from silent film to talkies had only recently been completed). Pius holds up for worldwide emulation the initiative that had recently taken by the American bishops to influence the motion picture industry in a moral direction, as well as to protect their own flocks from immoral movies. Vigilanti cura was ghostwritten by the American Jesuit Fr. Daniel Lord, a prolific pamphleteer involved with Catholic Action. Fr. Lord had written the original draft of the Motion Picture Production Code, and helped to found the Legion of Decency. He had also worked in Hollywood as a consultant on Cecil B. DeMille's silent Biblical picture, The King of Kings. This is the first of three episodes in which Thomas Mirus and Nathan Douglas survey the body of magisterial documents related to cinema, and discuss what we can take from these teachings today.

Hello, my lovelies! As we continue to discuss our vintage classics, you may have wondered why our movies of yesteryear seem to be from a completely different world. Well, believe it or not, it was all a part of a code that stayed in effect from the late 1920's up until the 60's when filmmakers really started to let loose. Old ain't old without The Motion Picture Production Code.Make sure to follow and rate the podcast wherever you listen - cheers!https://thecultworthy.com/cultworthy-classic/Contact deets:https://linktr.ee/hereslookinpodcastemail - hereslookinpodcast@gmail.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/hlayfpod/Twitter - https://twitter.com/film_nikki

Hollywood's Motion Picture Production Code, popularly referred to as the Hays Code, loomed over films in every stage of movie production from 1934 to 1968. Scripts were reviewed and altered. Actors and filmmakers were forced to redo entire scenes. Editors were asked to cut dialogue and scenes from films. Music was changed. Ultimately, directors had to be cognizant of the censors at all times. In this episode of So to Speak: The Free Speech Podcast, we interview three prominent guests to track the history of film censorship and the eventual demise of the Hays Code. John Billheimer, author of “Hitchcock and the Censors (Screen Classics),” explains Alfred Hitchcock's unique methods for dealing with controversial subject matter. Laura Wittern-Keller is a professor in the History department at the University at Albany and author of several books on film censorship, including “Freedom of the Screen: Legal Challenges to State Film Censorship, 1915-1981” and “The Miracle Case: Film Censorship and the Supreme Court.” Bob Corn-Revere, partner at Davis Wright Tremaine, is a frequent guest on the show. His forthcoming book “The Mind of the Censor and the Eye of the Beholder: The First Amendment and the Censor's Dilemma,” is due out in October. Show notes: Transcript Mutual Film Corp. v.

R-rated movies can be a controversial topic in American Mormon culture. While church leaders have specifically spoken against these movies in the past, there have been no recent official directions to avoid any specific ratings, which creates a large gray area of interpretation. Nick and Dan tackle the tricky subject by discussing the history of movie ratings in the USA, the origins of this quasi-commandment in the Mormon faith, their personal experiences, and results from an informal survey on the topic. Mentioned in this episode: 1. The Hays Code (a.k.a. the Motion Picture Production Code) 2. The MPA (a.k.a. MPAA) and a history of movie ratings 3. H.

For this episode I'm joined by Kristen Lopez as we take a look at one of the more overlooked era's of cinema history "Pre-Code Hollywood". A brief period between the introduction of the first sound pictures in 1929 to the enforcement of the “Motion Picture Production Code” in 1934 there existed an era known as Pre-Code Hollywood. A wild time for cinema as films were produced including profanity, drug use, prostitution, infidelity and abortion, while it also produced films featuring heroic criminal figures and strong female characters in what would be one of the wildest, yet still strangely overlooked era in cinema history and one we set out to explore on this episode.

In our final episode from our living rooms, we visit the dystopia of “Westworld” and the utopia of “Hollywood” to see if we can glean anything about what might be in store on the other side of this pandemic — and about who we want to be.Discussed this week:“Westworld” (HBO, 2016-20)“Hollywood” (Netflix, 2020)Ryan Murphy“The Stepford Wives” (directed by Frank Oz, 2004)“The Stepford Wives” (directed by Bryan Forbes, 1975)The Motion Picture Production Code of 1930“Love Jones” (directed by Theodore Witcher, 1997)“Love & Basketball” (directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, 2000)Anna May WongHattie McDanielOscar Micheaux“Delivering Thanks Team” (Papa John’s, 2020)

Most listeners will be aware of the current rating system used for feature films in the United States based on the G, PG, and R ratings. However, listeners may not be familiar with the earlier Motion Picture Production Code of 1930 that governed content of early “Talking” motion pictures. Join Nolan and Ben as they discuss the origins of this rudimentary production code and how it applies to today’s media.

For almost forty years the Motion Picture Production Code censored mainstream American films and limited their artistic vision. It's dissolution in the late 1960s due to changing economic and cultural pressures followed by the the institution of the voluntary Motion Picture Association of America Ratings System created a unique environment within which mainstream films were produced by artists that not only pushed boundaries but completely obliterated them. Unfortunately this proved to be a short lived phenomenon lasting only a brief seven to ten years before another economic and cultural sea change caused movies to move in an entirely different direction. This short seven year period has since become known as the Hollywood Renaissance.   In this episode we trace the history of this process and go over some of the unique artists and films of the time period, laying the groundwork for future episodes that will delve into specific genres and films.

The first in our final directorial mini-season of Season 3 is Alfred Hitchcock's debut feature, the 1926 silent film THE PLEASURE GARDEN. After a couple of short reviews, we talk about why this film's importance outweighs the extent to which it's ‘a good watch', representing transgression on-screen, and the way in which the film uses tropes of suspense and mystery without necessarily being a thriller. Next Week Our Hitchcock season continues with the 1948 classic ROPE, available on YouTube here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=93Gpm6kLZLk.

If you're desperately interested in this, knock yourself out: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_of_Transgression. If not, ignore this.) On the matter of politically progressive cinema, this paper is good: raley.english.ucsb.edu/wp-content/Engl800/MHansen.pdf. For more on the Motion Picture Production Code (more popularly known, given that the president of the MP Association at the time was Will H. Hays, as ‘The Hays Code'), see here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_Picture_Production_Code. The detective story to which Sam refers, in which the solving of the mystery turns on the barking (or not) of a dog, is the Sherlock Holmes tale ‘The Adventure of Silver Blaze' (1892): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventure_of_Silver_Blaze. Finally this week, the director and choreographer to whom Rob refers in the context of backstage musicals is the inimitable Busby Berkeley: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Busby_Berkeley.

Wow, another podcast episode more focused on classic film than horror! Horror can be peripherally involved, though, as the main thrust of our conversation is censorship and The Production Code that became the means for censorship in Hollywood for over three decades.
