Today’s the day! PRE-CODE ESSENTIALS is officially out in the world. 🥳
@PreCodeDotCom & I have been working on this book for many years. I’m so proud of what we’ve put together & the journey we’ve been on to get here.
From film historians and creators of @PreCodeDotCom, Kim Luperi and Danny Reid, PRE-CODE ESSENTIALS explores cinema's bold era before censorship – as it delves into the uniquely provocative classics that defined a genre and generation.

Stylish camerawork, innovative special effects, and plenty of startling pre-Code touches make this the definitive screen adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s gothic classic, directed with typical panache by Rouben Mamoulian. https://t.co/9BJPJp1nCq
