U.S. TALKIES
OVER-SEXED FILMS REJECTED BY BRITISH CENSORS. LONDON, Monday. During the past month the British Board of Film Censors has rejected five Ameriean talkies because they deal unpleasantly with sex problems. The Daily Mail's" film critic recalls that two years ago the Ameriean film industry announced that in future such problems would be treated with "good taste," but since then a flood of sex talkies of ever-increas-ing vulgarity, has steadily been produced. "Recent rejections," says the Daily Mail, "indicate that the patience of the British consors at last has become exhausted, and that from now onwards a higher standard of ethics will be strictly cnforced."
