so here we see cleavage, inner thighs, lace underwear, crime being got away with, smoking and drinking and of course a corpse. Hard to imagine movies that didn't contain any of these. I'm guessing the code was short lived. I guess any code has some value. Tomorrow is the anniversary of the large Chch earthquake - with 168 families experiencing the first anniversary of the death of a loved one. Today the remains of the last 4 people, officially unidentifiable have been buried at the Avonhead cemetery. |

In one of those amazing images this phot was published in 1934 to deliberately violate a photogrpahy code known as the Hays Code. The code was developed to avoid
governmental regulation and prohibited some plot lines and imagery
from films - there
was to be no cleavage, no lace underthings, no drugs or drinking, no corpses,
and no one shown getting away with a crime.
