It's called the Speilberg waiver. Any movie he does is deemed to be so important that the normal rules don't apply. No commercials, full frontal nudity, no problem (Schindler's list).

Exactly.

It is pathetic.

I dislike Speilberg's politics, but he makes DAMN GOOD MOVIES.

I think Pvt Ryan should be required viewing for every FReeper.

The movie, Deer Hunter, aired on TV years ago -- uncut. The "F" word was used rather frequently in that movie. I do not believe that Spielberg made that one, did he?

Bottom line: Normal censorship rules are occasionally set aside with warnings to the viewing public.

I think SPR should be required viewing by all high school students. Helps them to understand the sacrifices that others made so they can have Nintendo, rap music and premarital sex.
