This Film Is Not Yet Rated: Difference between revisions

A documentary by Kirby Dick which goes into considerable detail over the rating policies in the US and [[Executive Meddling|how in turn they affect a film's distribution and the ways in which it may be changed before release]]. This film contains several interviews with filmmakers along with scenes that have been removed or adjusted prior to release. The documentary points out that the identities of the people who handle the ratings are kept in secrecy - and then also documents the process of investigating who they are, and reveals them, then submits that version of the documentary to them.

 

 

* [[Blatant Lies]]: The filmmakers got two members of the MPAA appeals board to speak on camera. One insisted on anonymity. Cue a scene with the two interviews interspliced, giving completely contradictory explanations on how the process works. Guess which of the two gave a more sympathetic description.
