The Production Code awards the Seal of Approval to Sidney Lumet's "The Pawnbroker," even though the film is in direct violation of the Code. The Legion of Decency gave the film a Condemned rating, and soon closes forever.
In 1966, Jack Valenti announces a new code inspired by the principles of self-discipline and creative discretion. He recommended that certain films carry this: "Suggested for mature audiences." "The Graduate" takes aim at the Establishment.
"Blow-Up" elicits a storm of protest over its blatant presentation of sexuality and frontal nudity. MGM was prohibited from releasing the film without MPAA approval, but it found a way to bypass regulations.
In 1967, Warren Beatty ushered in a new era of boldness with "Bonnie and Clyde." French director Roger Vadim was known as the Svengali of continental sex symbols. Excerpts from "Barbarella" are included in this segment.
After Roger Vadim, other directors pushed the limits of screen sex. Excerpts from "I, a Woman," show just how far. America's mainstream cinemas had become a melting pot of international productions. " I Am Curious (Yellow)" went farther than most films.
Ken Russell's "Women in Love" crossed the line for movie viewers by showing full frontal male nudity. By 1968, screen nudity was as "common as blowing your nose." The concept of a guide to movie morality was obsolete. The Production Code is abandoned.
A letter classification system rated moves as G, M, R, and X to take the place of the Production Code. The first film to get a "X" rating was "Midnight Cowboy." Excerpts from the film are included in this segment.
"Myra Breckinridge" was an attempt to come to to life the outrageous parody the changing aspects of human sexuality. The same year, Russ Meyers produced the skin flick "Vixen," on which he had a profit margin of 20,000%. His next sex-ploitation big-budget film was "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls."
The idealism of the 1960s was over, and in its place rose cynicism. From California to Washington DC, the Vietnam War divided American people. "Easy Rider" convinced most young Americans that "looking for America" was a futile journey.
Two of the most important films of the early 1970s, "Carnal Knowledge" and "Bob and Carol and Ted and Alice," pushed the limits of the sexual revolution. President Nixon vows to uphold standards on smut and pornography.
