America is very different when it comes to topics like sex compared to other places in the world like Europe. In America sex has been more hush hush especially throughout the 20th century. In 2019 when it comes to sex, nudity, or even just talking about sex, it’s a little more relaxed than it used to be. When it comes to movies they could be rated are for things like drugs, swearing and violence. A movie could be rated NC-17 if it contains a lot adult content like sex and a lot of violence. A movie can still be rated PG-13 if there is violence but no blood. These ratings are important because it limits your movie to a specific audience. For example if you goal is to create a movie that is PG-13 that means that this movie can be seen by mostly everyone. The catch is that if you’re if you’re 13 or under then you would need a parent or guardian to come with you. If your movie is rated R that means you have to be over the age of 18 to go see that movie by yourself, but if you’re under the age of 18 you may still see the movie but you parent or guardian has to come with you. NC-17 means that only adults can go see this film and no one else. In other places around the world when it comes to sex and violence, unlike America, it’s the opposite. That means that movies are more likely to get a rated R or NC-17 if there’s a lot of violence in the movie instead of sex. One of the main reasons why movies are rated the way that they are in America is because people don’t want to receive letters or phone calls, getting harassed over the content of the movie. It’s also almost like an attempt at brain washing because people who you and I don’t even know are determining whats safe for people to watch and what isn’t because they think we’ll indulge in bad behavior because we saw it in a movie. When a war movie is being made the film makers have to consult with the pentagon to make sure that the American military isn’t being portrayed negatively. To make sure the movie isn’t showing off a war crime. In my opinion i think that is pretty crazy. I think people should be able to watch what they want to watch,it’s almost like saying violent video games cause people to be violent which has no proof to support it. At the end of the day people are individuals who should be able to develop their own morals, decide for themselves if that’s something they want to watch.
