» In the next few weeks we will be trying out In-Text Advertising, a new type of advertising that we think is less intrusive than many other formats. Basically, keywords on our pages that correspond to an advertiser's product or service will be double-underlined in green. More details here.
Jason Priestley and buddies travel to California in 1962 to
meet their idol, Marilyn Monroe.
SEX/NUDITY 5 - Three close-up scenes of Marilyn Monroe's nude 1950's
calendar shot (only her breasts are shown in the photo). One scene where a couple is
interrupted while in bed; they are covered up and nothing is shown. There is a long nude
beach scene where many male and female buttocks are obvious and many breasts are shown --
although not up close. There is some sexually explicit language and conversations about
sex.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Two boxing scenes, one brief and one rather long with many
punches but no gore. There is a brief scene where a man is punched by gangsters a few
times, and another where a man is threatened by said gangsters and thrown around; nothing
graphic is shown. There is a fistfight between two men; one's mouth and nose are
bloodied. A man is supposedly shot and bleeding but is really just fine.
PROFANITY 5 - Three F-words, as well as some scatological references and a
few mild profanities. There are also several scenes containing sexually explicit language. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Lack of closeness between parent and son, the importance of
friendships.
MESSAGE - Loyalty and friendship are the most important things in life and
your own desires should take a back seat, when necessary.
