Yerba Buena Center for the Arts presents Child Bride November 7, 2007

What:
Child Bride
The most shocking and licentious exploitation film of the 1930s, Child Bride is a grossly fabricated illustration of the illicit ills of child marriage. Down in Appalachia, on Thunderhead Mountain, inbred, uneducated girls are swapped among coarse middle-aged menfolk. The people are portrayed as living in a sequestered world, out of step with modern values and customs. (1938, 62 min, 16mm)
