§ 14-66. Obscene motion pictures.

(a)

Prohibited. It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to show or cause to be shown in a motion picture theater or other public place where an admission charge is made an obscene motion picture or similar exhibition or process.

(b)

Test for obscenity. The test for obscenity as applied to this section is whether or not, according to contemporary community standards, as applied by the average person, the motion picture contains any scene which causes the dominant effect of the motion picture to tend to stir the sex impulses or to lead to sexually impure and lustful thoughts or to appeal to prurient interests.
