This Film Is Not Yet Rated - An MPAA Expose

First half-hour of Kirby Dick's documentary "This Film is Not Yet Rated", a critical stab at the Motion Picture Association of America's rating system, its hypocrisy, secrecy, and insidious influence on American cinema and culture.

Great documentary that shows that in America violence is far more acceptable then sex, while in Europe it's the reverse. Interesting wouldn't you say?

Also MPAA ratings mean nothing to the consumer, and everything to the filmmaker.

At last year's New Orleans Film Festival this film was scheduled as the very last one. As "Babel" finished, we were told "This Film is Not Yet Rated" had not arrived and that we could exchange our tickets for any of the theater's regular films.

So I exchanged my ticket and was waiting to watch "Renaissance." Then someone came into announce that the film "This is Not Yet Rated" had indeed arrived and to exchange our tickets again. Luckily someone handed me a spare ticket - his date was a no show.

I just watched this today on Google Video. Astounding stuff. I didn't realise that MPAA was *that* fucked up. They definitely need some regime change there.

Anyone who watches Hollywood films should see this.
