As much as the teacher showing this movie stinks, this may be her and the schools ace card. Teachers are adult guardians.

“R —”Restricted. Under 17 Requires Accompanying Parent or Adult Guardian”: The Rating Board applies this rating to movies the members believe contain a high level of adult content, such as harsh profanity, intense violence, explicit sexual content and extensive drug use. In some states, the minimum age to see an R rated movie unaccompanied is 18.”

Read it just this morning from AOL.

That’s a win for us.

Equally as bad my eight-grade daughter was subject to The Inconvenient Truth by Al Gore in her Science class.

Just part of the recruiting drive by the gay community.

I'm just not sure how the school is liable - maybe someone else can point it out, I don't see it.

Schools are not the proper venue for films, period. That’s why God created movie theaters.
