Blue Movie

From WikiMD's medical encyclopedia

Blue Movie is a term often used to describe a type of film that contains explicit sexual content. The term originated in the early 20th century and has been used to describe both mainstream and pornographic films.

History

The term "Blue Movie" was first used in the early 20th century to describe films that were considered immoral or obscene. These films were often shown in burlesque houses and other adult entertainment venues. The term was derived from the blue laws that were in place at the time, which prohibited certain types of entertainment on Sundays.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the term "Blue Movie" began to be used more broadly to describe any film that contained explicit sexual content. This was a time of significant change in the film industry, with the introduction of the MPAA rating system and the increasing acceptance of sexual content in mainstream films.

Notable Blue Movies

One of the most famous films to be described as a "Blue Movie" is Deep Throat, a 1972 pornographic film that was one of the first to feature a plot, character development, and relatively high production values. Another notable Blue Movie is Behind the Green Door, a 1972 film that was one of the first to feature interracial sex scenes.

Impact and Legacy

Blue Movies have had a significant impact on the film industry and on society as a whole. They have challenged societal norms and taboos, and have played a role in the sexual revolution of the 1960s and 1970s. They have also been the subject of legal battles and controversies, with many Blue Movies being banned or heavily censored.

Despite the controversy, Blue Movies have also been recognized for their artistic merit. Some have been praised for their cinematography, storytelling, and performances, and have even been included in film festivals and retrospectives.
