Hollywood 03 Single Beds and Double Standards
Fast success in Hollywood brings a cavalier party lifestyle, which led to shocking scandals such as Roscoe Fatty Arbuckle s trial and subsequent acquittal for manslaughter. To tone down the image of Hollywood and curtail films with footage unsuitable to all audiences, Will H. Hays is appointed and introduces Hollywood s self regulated Production Code, which would be enforced well into the 1960s, while filmmakers still found creative ways to present adult situations. Interviews include King Vidor and Gloria Swanson.
