Revision as of 17:48, 3 October 2010

This is a list of films rated NC-17 (No One 17 And Under Admitted) by the Motion Picture Association of America's Classification and Rating Administration (CARA). It includes X-rated films reassigned an NC-17 rating, and titles which were originally rated NC-17, but edited for a lower rating. Titles with surrendered ratings, such as Todd Solondz's film Happiness, are usually released unrated to avoid the stigma of NC-17. Some films are released without an MPAA rating because the filmmaker expects an NC-17 (a recent example is Lars von Trier's Antichrist).

Changes in ratings are due to resubmission or appeal by a film's producers. Films receiving an NC-17 are often cut and resubmitted in hopes of earning an R rating, which allows distribution to more outlets than an NC-17 rating. Still, there are some exceptions: for example, in 2004, Fox Searchlight Pictures released The Dreamers with an NC-17 rating; this film grossed $2.5 million in its United States theatrical release, a respectable result for a specialized film with a targeted audience.[1] The same year, Sony Pictures Classics released Bad Education with an NC-17 rating; it grossed $5.2 million in the United States theatrically, earning back more than its budget of $5 million.[2] Furthermore, in 2007, Focus Features released Lust, Caution with an NC-17 rating; it grossed $4.6 million in the United States theatrically,[2] and Focus was very satisfied with the film's theatrical release.[3]

NC-17 films also tended to make much more money on the home video/DVD market. For example, Showgirls became one of MGM's top 20 all-time bestsellers,[4] and Lust, Caution has generated more than $18 million from DVD rentals in the United States.[5]

Occasionally an R-rated film will have footage added to earn an NC-17 rating and its accompanying notoriety. In at least one case, an R-rated film was re-rated NC-17 even though no edits were made: The 1969 Sam Peckinpah film The Wild Bunch, originally rated R, was resubmitted by Warner Bros. in 1993 before an expected rerelease; to their surprise, it was rated NC-17, delaying the rerelease while the decision was appealed.[6][7]

Some titles include the reasons the rating was given. In 1990, the Classification and Rating Administration began including a brief statement of the reason for a specific film's R rating; several years later it began giving reasons for all film ratings.
