PRE-CODE FILMS
This film series relates to one of Montalvo’s themes, censorship and dissent. “Pre-Code” describes films made in a five-year period in film history, 1929 – 1934, when restrictions on movie content varied widely, depending on local laws, mores and public taste. These films tend to be racier, more cynical, more socially critical and more politically strident than films produced after this time.
