You could title a movie "Sex" back in 1920 ? Also, there is an almost centennial movie about Ann Boleyn ? Quick, to the Googlemobile!

The 20's were wild, as were the early 30's, it's only towards 1934-1935 that Hollywood started enforcing heavy censorship (the Hayes code), which lasted until the 60's... or at least that's my understanding of it.
