The Hays Code, developed by Will H. Hays but most notably supervised by Joseph Breen, had profound impact on the world of American cinema through it’s elimination of any concepts that didn’t match the moral standards of those heading the department. A fascinating outcome in this era, from 1934 to 1968, was the few films that were able to filmmaking trickery to get past these sensors, with many of these moments being outlined in film historian Nat Segaloff ’s new book The Naughty Bits: What The Censors Wouldn’t Let You See in Hollywood’s Most Famous Movies. Filmmakers like Howard Hawks and Billy Wilder were able to find methods of pushing boundaries with risque language and visual euphemisms. So for this week’s FilmWeek Feature, Larry sits down with Nat to discuss this time of censorship, and how some moments in American cinema at the time were able to make it through the censors undetected.
