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. |

The myth of the white wolf continues with Henry Casey
(Scott Bairstow) and his pal White Fang helping a Native American-Eskimo tribe ward off
impending starvation.
SEX/NUDITY 1 - One brief, resisted kiss and one passionate kiss. A woman is
shown briefly from the back while sitting and wrapping a blanket around her seemingly nude
body.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - A man falls on a steel trap and is in obvious pain, and a
man is trampled by a herd of caribou, although very little is shown. A few scenes where
men point guns, a Native-American is shot and killed but no blood is seen and one man hits
another man across the back. Two decayed bodies are briefly shown (one is hanging). Henry
and White Fang fall into the rapids, are pummeled about and seem worse for wear (Henry has
a little bit of blood on his face). There are a few scenes where White Fang growls at
people, and one scene where he falls down on a man and injures him.
PROFANITY 1 - A couple of very mild obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Greed, white settlers vs. Native Americans, hunger,
befriending wild animals.
MESSAGE - It's good to learn about other cultures; when you're in love you
must compromise.

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. |
