The Story Of Temple Drake glass slide
Glass slide advertisement for The Story Of Temple Drake from 1933. The movie was extremely controversial because of its content matter. It was banned in Pennsylvania and Ohio, and Production Code Administration head Joseph Breen ordered that the film never be re-released once the Production Code came into effect in mid-1934. The film did not resurface until the mid-1950s. The movie is based on William Faulkner's also very controversial book, Sanctuary. The movie has been completely restored by The Museum Of Modern Art & Turner Classic movies, so hopefully it will be released on dvd sometime soon.
