Samenvatting
Met lit. opg. - Met reg. Eleven essays explore a century of struggle over cinematic representations of sex, crime, violence, religion, race, and ethnicity: the links between theatrical and cinematic censorship at the dawn of the movie era; the involvement of women's organization and the Catholic Church in censorship campaigns: the ways in which industry self-censorship helped to establish the cultural legitimacy of Hollywood as well as its national and international economic stability; etcetera.
