Most of those movies were made before PC was even a concept. Hell, all the old B&W movies were un-PC -- look at the way Cagney treated women.

One of my little known favorites "The Green Pastures", from 1936 features an all black cast retelling biblical tales. For several years if was broadcast on one of the alphabet channels on Christmas eve (very late!).

Like SOS, and many others, it only achieved notoriety with the social acceptance of the concept of "PC". Now it is effectively banned from television, and hard to find even online.

I take cruel pleasure in being anti-PC!
