This 1940 Photo By A.L. Schafer Entitled "Thou Shalt Not" Is Intended To Mock The Restrictive Hays Code

This 1940 photo by A.L. Schafer entitled "Thou Shalt Not" is intended to mock the restrictive Hays code that governed what Hollywood films were allowed to depict on-screen. Although adherence to the code was voluntary and not always rigorously enforced, it cast a spectre over the films of the time, with directors and producers wary of pushing the limits. The image contains the top 10 faux-pas that the code prohibited depictions of. They are: 1. The law being defeated 2. Inner thigh 3. Lace lingerie 4. A dead body 5. Drugs 6. Alcohol consumption 7. Exposed bosoms 8. Gambling 9. Pointing a gun at somebody 10. A tommy gun (a weapon associated with gangsters and organised crime)

I'm looking forward to Spring so I can shut off the furnace, open windows and sit on the back steps and read all of the books I have piled up in my room.
This song give me grimey 80s Neo Noir vibes.



No context really, just felt like making some Sykes-GIF's :)
Bill Sykes from Oliver and Company has Big Bossy Papa energy. 🥰
Dr. Robotnik has taste. This is a straight up banger.
