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. |

Patrick Swayze is a drifter taken in by Mary Elizabeth
Mastrantonio and her sons in this look at post-Korean War suburban life.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - Some passionate kissing. One kiss appears to be a prelude to
sex (a man and woman are sitting on a bed and in the next scene she's smiling knowingly).
A man's bare chest and bare buttocks are exposed.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - A man is hit and another man is almost hit by a car. Kids
taunting and teasing; some fighting among kids; one child imagines a monster.
PROFANITY 2 - A couple scatological references and a handful of mild
obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Cancer, war, vagrancy, societal disapproval.
MESSAGE - You will be rewarded for your good deeds. Magic exists.

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. |
