While these pushed the boundaries it was not until 1969 that the filth was unleashed with the new joke of a ratings system.ratings system. G, M,R,X. Then G,GP,R,X. Then G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17.
T&A, full frontal, vile language and worse became the norm. Some movies rated “R” in 1969 are now re-rated as PG-13.

I saw a Glen Ford movie at the theater in 1969, rated “M” due to mild violence. Kids were in the audience.
I saw the same movie a few weeks ago on TV, with extremely nude scenes re-shot which would have rated it a hard “R” rating in 1969.

Oh, here you go! “The Moon is Blue,” 1953. Darling, if you like this type of film.

I wonder if that was a “European” release print, of that 1969 movie. The studios were more apt in the 1960s to toss in some brief bits of raunch for their foreign-release versions, which weren’t in the domestic release prints.

Annoyingly, it’s those seedier versions that now seem to be accepted as the prime, ‘complete’ versions by dvd-collectors and videophiles.
