This Controversial Hedy Lamarr Movie Was Banned in North America

You know you’ve made a controversial movie when the Pope weighs in – and that was certainly the case for 1933’s Ecstasy by Czech director Gustav Machatý. So, what exactly got Pope Pius XI so upset? Roughly a minute of nudity and the female orgasm. While the film is extremely tame by modern standards, people were a lot less relaxed about nudity and sexuality (especially female sexuality) 90 years ago, and Ecstasy is generally considered the first non-pornographic movie to depict sexual intercourse and female orgasm. What followed was a whole load of controversy, ranging from lead actress Hedy Lamarr (known at that time as Hedy Kiesler) claiming to be tricked into the nude scenes, to her arms dealer husband attempting to purchase every print of the film, to bans across the world — including the United States under the Hays Code.
