Subverse Aphrodesia

Lions Gate Films has hired former New York Governor and liberal democrat Mario Cuomo to lead the fight for reversal of the R rating assigned to Michael Moore's Pamle D'Or winning film "Fahrenheit 9/11" by the MPAA last week.

The Hollywood Reporter quoted Cuomo as saying: "War is too violent for kids." (This film) tells you about war. War is too violent for adults." The film apparently contains violent images and some questionable language, but Moore and Cuomo have posed that younger viewers should not be kept from the film's POV since they may be called upon to defend American in their near future.

And, naturally a concern, the R rating would mean decreased profits for the film.
