My final paper plan is to research Mae West’s career and analyze how it was affected and ultimately changed by the development of the Production Code. I will begin with her pre-code films Night After Night, She Done Him Wrong, and I’m No Angel. Then I will address her films made during or after 1934 such as My Little Chickadee and Klondike Annie. After I have discussed her films and the controversy surrounding them, I will analyze Mae’s point of view as well as the censor’s point of view.
