Snake Tail Nibbling

Amusing, and from this morning's Times:

A new documentary about the ratings system of the Motion Picture Association of America and its impact on American culture has been given an NC-17 rating by the association. The rating specifies: "No one 17 and under admitted." An announcement from the Independent Film Channel said the documentary, "This Film Is Not Yet Rated," was given the rating for "some graphic sexual content" and noted that such a designation usually means that many theater chains will not show the film, publications will not run advertisements and video store chains will not stock it.

Wonder if the filmmakers did this purposefully.
