Sex & Nudity
Mild
Some mention of the shift some theaters experienced in the 70s to showing pornographic content. A brief image of a marquis (not a close-up) with a woman's body (no detail).
Violence & Gore
None
A brief image of a woman holding a gun (part of the post-60s Blacksploitation movies). No blood or violence.
Profanity
Mild
One use of "god," about 20 minutes in.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
Mild
Mention of the smoking rooms that some movie palaces had for men. An image of one of them that had a mural on the wall with an image of a pipe in it.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
Mild
A very brief clip from Frank Capra's The Bitter Tea of General Yen in which Barbara Stanwyck cowers on her bed as a Nosferatu-like vampire approaches her with long crooked fingers. In the movie this is a dream sequence. This was the first movie shown at a certain movie palace.
