Cranky Hanke’s Screening Room: What offends you?
I was talking to an old friend about movie ratings. He mentioned that on military bases movies were rated in pre-MPAA rating days—something with which I was unfamiliar. I don’t recall the rating system, but I was interested to note that one of the “forbidden” movies was David Swift’s Under the Yum Yum Tree. What slightly surprised me was my immediate response, “And so it ought to have been,” and the realization that I find this movie offensive.
