Hays' appointment came on the heels of a series of much-publicized Hollywood scandals and growing complaints about movies with "indecent" subject matter, which led to U.S.

That would be 1941's "The Reluctant Dragon," a live-action/animated hybrid film in which humorist and comedian Robert Benchley (portraying a fictional version of himself) meets Walt Disney and various now-legendary members of his animation department (all similarly playing "themselves") while trying to convince Disney to buy the rights to Kenneth Grahame's 1898 children's story "The Reluctant Dragon." But to explain why the movie was censored, we first need to talk about the infamous Motion Picture Production Code, AKA the Hays Code. Curiously, however, one of the rare cases of a Disney movie being censored came about for a very bizarre reason that had nothing to do with offensive or mature content. Yet, as you might expect, there have been plenty of exceptions to that rule dating back to the company's early days - from Disney movies that featured racially and/or culturally insensitive depictions of certain people and places (like "Song of the South" and "Peter Pan") to films that included grisly acts of violence (like 2013's "The Lone Ranger," where one of the villains is a cannibalistic outlaw). The House of Mouse has long prided itself on providing wholesome entertainment for the masses with its feature films.
