watch The nil ing came on an appeal by an Atlanta man Robert Eli Stanley who was convicted in 1907 of having three stag films in his home and was to one year in prison Said Marshall of He is asserting the right to read or observe what he pleases the right to satisfy his lectual and emotional needs in the privacy of his home He is asserting the right to be free from state into the con- tents of his library Stanley did not argue that the films were not obscene and the court assumed for purposes of its decision that they arc scene under tests previously laid out by the court The decision clearly
