I'm mulling an old argument that Americans have no culture, only sub-cultures. My own version involves slang—simultaneous and partially overlapping worlds defined by languages, inbred tongues. With the advent of "All Talking Pictures" during the Depression, our nation suddenly sung in raucous dialects, mostly defunct now of course. James Cagney yells "Bezark!" and the silent film myth of a unified audience is broken. And, to my ear, nationhood itself goes utterly blooey.
Sadly, however, this wealth of regional, ethnic, and occupational gab would be squelched by the Hays Code, with its demand for homogenized speech, mores, etc. There's some push-back in the noir vogue several years later (which often featured the use of underworld slang) but nothing as extreme as pre-Code, where people could, and would, suddenly bust into Yiddish:
