For those who are interested in watching some of these films, I highly recommend checking out the Criterion Channel's "Pre-code Paramount" collection[0] that was released as part of the March lineup[1]. The intro film essay by Imogen Sara Smith is fantastic. The collection includes Mae West's brazenly frank dialogue about sex, a movie with a ménage à trois, a movie with a musical number about marijuana, and Marlena Dietrich's iconic crossdressing in Morocco. There's more too, but really too much to cover here!
