Upon its release in , The President Vanishes was named by the National Legion of Decency — an organization of the United States Catholic Church — as one of Hollywood's problematic and "immoral" films. The Catholic Church demanded an implementation and enforcement of a set of industry censorship guidelines to control and remove content that the church saw as immoral.

Threatened by a large scale boycott of all Hollywood films, Will H. Hays , then president of Motion Picture Association of America , came to an agreement with the church that saw the establishment of Production Code Administration and passage of the Motion Picture Production Code , also known as Hays Code.

However, this was also due to the fact that this movie is rather rare and so my copy of it has good quality in neither picture nor sound. A Washington lobbyist is against the idea of war, along with the president, and his wife, Sally Rosalind Russell feels the same way. Where I draw the line, no man comes through. When she gives the dinner party for the five men, she does most of the talking as she sits at the head of the table like a queen.

In talking to the five men, she charms the pants off of them, talking about their best qualities and talents, although there is poison apparent in her tone. He brings to my poor table the charm and brains of America—Edward Cullen, who knows more about steel than Midas knew about gold; Barton Drew, our greatest banker, whose bolting vaults would put poor old creases to shame; and dear Roger Grant, who binds 10 million readers with his chain of newspapers; Judge Cochran, defender of the Constitution, lover of liberty, friend of the people… especially the right people.

The men start arguing about going to war after she leaves and as the scene dissolves, a cutaway shows a group of six eagles attacking each other. A large Washington meeting is the last scene in which we see Roz. She comes into the room late and sits next to her husband.

She tells him there was a mob outside and it was hard to get in. The rest of the film is not really worth seeing, especially in such bad quality.

However, Rosalind Russell is a very interesting part of the cast and worth seeing, if at least for the dinner party scene. Wikipedia page for The President Vanishes A review of The President Vanishes Yeah another of her early films that I have yet to see.
