2 And Media Ethics Picture from Wikipedia

3  This era had films that featured many adult themes that were considered “unacceptable.”  The Hays Code (created by Daniel Lord)  wanted to promote moral values. Picture from Wikipedia and quote from youtube video on slide 5

4  Pre-Code Films feature some nudity, light profanity, sexual innuendos, symbolic sexual situations, homosexuality, violence, racy scenes, prostitution, and implied abortion. Picture from Wikipedia

5  Joseph I. Breen wanted the film Industry to have traditional moral values in film and wanted to censor any inappropriate scene. By 1934 The Hays Code was enforced and films of that time were featuring little or no immoral subjects. Picture from Google Images

7 The Code was enforced for many years until the 1960s. The films of the 60s started to bring up subjects that were not allowed for many years. By 1968, the Hays Code was abolished and MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America ) was created to start the rating system. The picture on the left features the first X rated film to win best picture Midnight Cowboy in 1969.

8 FILMMAKER’S RESPONSIBILITY  Filmmakers often say “they are not responsible for the social impacts of their own creations.”  Some people feel that content in film is a form a freedom of speech.  Smoking and or drugs can influence young people to smoke.  Language can be “over used.”  Sexual immorality can have young people, have sex without thinking about it.  Violence in film has often led people to create more violence.  Drinking in films can have an influence on young people.
