Welcome to our Season 3 Premiere! Sara and Dad cover the 3rd Academy Awards ceremony (honoring the best in films between August 1, 1929 and July 31, 30). This awards was held only seven months after the 2nd awards. Movies during this era are considered “Pre-Code,” so we delve a bit into the Hays Production Code and the upcoming censorship challenges faced by filmmakers. Somehow we manage to discuss whether or not kissing on screen is indecent, and the guidelines of ancient Greek theater. Of course, we give an overview of the five films nominated for the top honor, and speculate on some of the controversial subjects covered in the upcoming films.
The Movies:
- Disraeli (1929)
- The Love Parade (1929)
- All Quiet on the Western Front (1930)
- The Divorcee (1929)
- The Big House
