this is tough for me because technically none of these are what i would consider pre-code in the traditional definition, at all. however, they're also all great films.
i'll give you a yes, but i want you to watch blonde crazy and footlight parade, please. :)
I love recsdominoparkerMarch 18 2015, 18:22:16 UTC
I'll def check them out.
Also, I'm curious what your definition of pre-code is, because my understanding was that it was stuff pre-1930. Maybe the stupid teens on the internet have been fucking with the wikipedia entry on this subject.
