Been watching a bunch of pre-code American and Weimar German silent films lately cuz I’m an absolute freak. Anyway I’m losing it at some of the youtube comments on these movies

My guy, the movie you’re saying this about has MULTIPLE SCENES of gratuitous, full frontal nudity

#it’s “Hypocrite” by Lois Weber btw #which ok Weber was kinda a wet blanket compared to her contemporaries with how she thought movies should preach moral/political lessons #instead of just being fun nonsense #but still like. pre code silent features are some of the most ‘degenerate’ art ever created. especially German stuff #acting high and mighty about their morals is so funny #silent film #Lois Weber #Margaret edwards #film #movie tag #silent films #pre code hollywood #pre-code #pre code movie #pre code movies
