Hays ruled that "under standards established by the Supreme Court, the showing of the picture cannot be inhibited." "It seems to be conceded that the sexual content of the film is presented with greater explicit-ness than has ever been seen in any other film for general viewing," Judge Hays said, "The question for decision is whether, oing further in this direction han any other previous prndur-t on, the film exceeds the limits ej'ablished by the courts."

Judge Hays continued: "Although sexual conduct is undeniably an important aspect nf the picture and may be thought of as constituting one of its principal themes, it cannot be said that 'the dominant theme of the material taken as a whole appeals to a prurient interest in Moreover, not only is the sexual theme subordinate, but it is handled in such a way as to make it at least extremely doubtful thai interest in it should be characterized as 'prurient. "It is even more clear that Am Curious' is not utterly without redteming social value. Whatever weight we may attach to the opinions of the 'experts' who testified to the picture's social importance, and whether or not we ourselves consider the ideas of Ihe picture particularly interesting or the production artistically successful, it is quite certain that 'I Am Curious' does present ideas and does strive to present these ideas artistically.
