Good! Films are pieces of art, and the director and producer should have the say as to whether they can be tampered with.

I am convinced that most nude scenes in movies are filmed in order to satisfy the voyeristic predilictions of the directors. And 99% of the curse words in movies are wholly unnecessary. It is as if the only adjectives the writers know start with "F" and end with "K" or "ING".

Most of the truly great movies contain no curse words and no nudity. They contain a lot of intelligent dialogue using the Queen's English.

Most of the newer movies must be "sanitized" before they are released on television, and the television versions are often much better than the origianals. In order to make up for the lost time from all the cuts from the curse words and nudity, they add scenes which were left on the cutting room floor.

Don't tell me that the new movies are pieces of art. Most of them are trash. They reflect the morality and the artistic vision of the hollywood crowd. IOW they have no sense of morality and no sense of art.

Art is in the eye of the beholder, you might think that "hee haw" is the zenith of comedy, I might disagree. What you feel about a piece of art is irrelevant, its still the director's vision and creation.

You can't go making and breaking laws based on your personal feelings about a movie. Neither you nor I speak for every viewer.

I TOTALLY AGREE.

I avoid R-rated movies because of the continual F-words and gratuitous sex and violence. I enjoyed "The Greatest Game Ever Played," and you didn't hear much about it.
