In the past the studios ensured that actors and actresses behaved by binding them to studio contracts and making sure they at least didn’t get caught.

A Clockwork Orange met the code’s standards... really? Or Schindler’s List with it’s full frontal nudity?

To be fair I did write that it was "hilarious that the vast majority of the films you chose to illustrate your assertion..." so I had already stipulated to the exceptions. Also, I prefaced my entire remark by asking if you had read the article and it is now clear that you didn't. I am afraid that I will have to retract my earlier complement of your wit since your self-depricating irony appears now to have been sadly accidental.
