" ...the blue movies must have story, character development, and background in which sex scenes are incidental. For example, a story of a whaling voyage, 1859, 2 hours in length, contains only 18 minutes of sex scenes scattered through the film. The blue movies, as a separate genre, have ceased to exist. We show sex as it occurs in the story as a part of life, not a mutilated fragment. "
