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. |

Demi Moore plays a woman who leads two lives --
one as a mother in France and the other as a literary agent in New York -- and is unable
to tell which one is real and which one is a fantasy. Also with Stellan Skarsgård,
William Fichtner, Peter Riegert, Sinéad Cusack and Matthew Beisner. [1:45]
SEX/NUDITY 5 - Several instances of sexual innuendo and several kisses,
often passionate. Twice, a boy quickly kisses a girl on the cheek. A man and woman kiss
passionately, then we see them nude but sheet-covered in bed, presumably post-coitus; he
starts kissing her neck, back and side, then they have intercourse (we mostly just hear
their heavy breathing and see a close-up of the sheets moving as the camera pans down the
bed). Two other sex scenes show a man and woman kissing passionately as well as their
pleasured facial expressions; in one of the scenes the man kisses the woman's bare
stomach (her chest is covered by a shirt) and we see her hand running up his bare back. A
woman wakes up alone in bed, moving as if having intercourse. We see the bare shoulders of
a man and woman sitting in a bathtub together and talking, a women wearing a
semi-transparent tank top, a shirtless man, and a nude but sheet-covered woman in bed (a
clothed man is sitting next to her).
VIOLENCE/GORE 0 - A girl unsuccessfully tries to rouse a sleeping woman;
it's implied that she's dead.
PROFANITY 3 - An anatomical reference, a couple of scatological references,
several mild obscenities and an insult. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Double identity, falling in love, being "analyzed,"
mother-daughter relationships, being a widow, dreams vs. reality.
MESSAGE - Unresolved issues can manifest themselves in real and peculiar
ways.

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. |
