In this episode of the TSF podcast, we explore efforts to censor the pregnant body in the media. Our case study is a film called The Miracle of Morgan's Creek (Preston Sturges 1944). Why has it been so taboo to show the pregnant body onscreen at certain points in history? What does this taboo suggest about cultural attitudes towards women's bodies? And were films able to manipulate the censorship system to include "objectionable" material? Find out in this episode!
