Did the representation of Jane, after the enforcement of the Production Code regulations, have a very different pattern of behaviour, costuming, and setting to original depiction of Jane in this movie sequence, and were the consequences to the genre and grammar of the films? What were effects of The Hay’s Code on the representation of Jane in the Johnny Weissmuller and Maureen O’Sullivan movies? A comparison of the differences in the portrayal of Jane, in Tarzan the Ape Man, Tarzan and His Mate, Tarzan Escapes, Tarzan Finds a Son, Tarzan’s Secret Treasure and Tarzan’s New York Adventure, illustrates how much power the Hay Code wielded, as these were the Tarzan movies in production when the Code was gaining in influence in Hollywood. The Hay’s Office, which endeavoured to police the Production Code, influenced cinematographers to adopt a restrictive, respectable morality in their films during the 1930s.
