Still from Red Dust (1932)Professor Mike Wayne explores the fascinating story of how the trend towards “adult” material in such Depression-era films as the 1932 Scarface and Red Dust led to Hollywood submitting to self-censorship under the elaborate Hays Code, to drastic effect.

Doors open at 18.30 for a 19.30 start, and the event is expected to end at 22.30.

Refreshments will be available.
