ASSIGNED NUMBERS |
|
|
Unlike the MPAA we do not assign one inscrutable rating based on age, but 3 objective ratings for SEX/NUDITY, VIOLENCE/GORE and PROFANITY on a scale of 0 to 10, from lowest to highest, depending on quantity and context. |

Ally Sheedy is a heroin-addicted photographer who
left the art world ten years ago and is convinced by a young magazine editor to begin
showing her work again. Also with Radha Mitchell, Patricia Clarkson, Bill Sage, Gabriel
Mann, David Thornton, Anh Duong and Tammy Grimes.
SEX/NUDITY 7 - Sexual innuendo. Lots of passionate kissing, mostly between
women. A man and woman appear to have sex with lots movement and sound; the woman remains
clothed and we only see the man's bare chest. A woman fondles another woman's
clothed breasts, then opens her shirt and reveals her bra; the woman then unbuttons the
other's pants (we see a bit of her underwear) and begins kissing her stomach. In two
scenes, we see a woman's bare breast as another woman kisses it. A naked woman is
covered with a sheet (but we see her bare back) and another woman, shirtless but covered,
lies on top of her; we later see photographs of this scene. A woman fondles another
woman's breasts underneath her shirt; we also see photographs of this scene. We see a
small part of a woman's bare buttocks as she's lying on her stomach in a
bathtub, and also the side of a woman's bare buttocks and thigh while she's
sitting on a toilet. Many women wear cleavage-revealing tops, and several scenes show
scantily clad women.
VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - A few people shoot up, but no blood is seen.
PROFANITY 8 - Nearly 40 F-words, several scatological references, one
anatomical reference and one mild obscenity. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Drug addiction, lesbianism, betrayal, disillusionment,
ambition, fame, falling in love.
MESSAGE - Sometimes there's nothing you can do to help a person abandon his
or her self-destructive lifestyle.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
