FILM CENSORSHIP AND THE MOVIE CARTEL

This is the third part of an interesting and mostly serious interview with Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators of South Park.

The interesting part is at about 5 minutes when they are talking about two different reactions they got to their work  from the group that decides film ratings [PG, 12, 15, 18 or whatever]

What kind of reaction you get seems to be dependent on whether you work independently or having the backing of a major company. What a surprise!

Nevertheless, it is an interesting listen…

    They lampoon traditional left and right which is f*cking fine by me.

    they also occasionally make very very good points.

    I always keep in mind an orwell quote..

    “People do not object to socialism. The object to socialists”.
