Yeah, there’s that Hedy Lamarr movie that features nudity and her having an orgasm. I like some of the goofier pre-code stuff, Jewel Robbery is like the first stoner comedy - William Powell as a gentleman robber who makes his victims smoke weed to help them chill out while he’s stealing their stuff.

Have listened to some podcasts about the ways people got sexual content into movies in the 40’s - making “educational” films like Mom and Dad where you got to see nudity in the context of childbirth, or having doctors introduce films to keep the cops from shutting down the screenings.
