Before the Hays Code

Maggie Mae Fish (she/her) discusses three early films as examples of radical portrayals of sex, sexuality, and gender. From the homoeroticism of Wings (1927), to the female empowerment of Ecstasy (1933), to the commentary on colorism and mixed-race relationships of Veiled Aristocrats (1932), these old movies were more subversive than you might imagine.
