Angela Beebe Film Response

I found it enlightening to see the behind-the-scene aspect of the rating system for films in the movie “This Film is Not Yet Rated”. The “rules” that the MPAA have put in place that of there own idea limits the film makers in what they can do with movies. By doing this that restricts the film maker to what kind of movie they can make, what can be said, and what can be visually communicated. While I do believe there should be restriction on what is shown to children. It is ultimately up to the parent to decide what their child views, and I think that the MPAA started out with the right intention to help educate parents on what is filmed. The MPAA obviously doesn’t hold the same views as all Americans and I think that other review boards should be made to rate movies. This would allow film makers to get a fair chance at a rating.
