      @@mikedaniels3009 These are pre-code films. Back then, concentration was more on vocal ability than physical aesthetics due to the introduction of sound in 1929. Actors lost work based on not how they looked, but how they sounded. Many actors came from the theater, where projection and ability were key. Also, a lot of these films weren't done in Hollywood. New Jersey and New York film studios played significant roles back then as well.

Although the films were popular, some folks complained that too many women and especially children were imitating her. The Catholic Legion of Decency, founded in 1934, was instrumental in getting the Code in place (Joseph Breen, the Code's director, was a strict Roman Catholic).

      There was a period from the end of the silent era to 1st July 1934 where the production code (censorship) was not fully enforced. Things got by the censors that from July 34 would not be allowed. There more sex, more violence, more innuendo, drug references sex outside marriage and generally more realism. There were much stronger roles for women too. There were even a few films that features lynchings. This openness disappeared once the code officially came into force.
