Girls Gone Wild is a 1929 pre-Code American Synchronized sound melodrama film produced and released by Fox Film Corporation. While the film has no audible dialog, it was released with a synchronized musical score with sound effects using the sound-on-film Movietone process. The film was controversial as an early example of the rising tide of violence and disrespect for the law that would become key themes in the 1930s.{{cite book |last=Butters |first=Gerald R. |author-link= |title=Banned in Kansas: Motion Picture Censorship, 1915-1966 |publisher=University of Missouri Press |date=2007 |pages=195–196 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=F3XBLyzwhcsC |isbn=978-0-8262-1749-3}} "These motion pictures of the early sound era gave indication to larger trends that would burst forth in the early 1930s. The first of these films was the Fox Movietone feature Girls Gone Wild (1929). The film was an early example of the rising tide of violence and disrespect for the law that would become key themes."
