X Rating. Other words for X-rating. Joking or humorous language or behaviour used in a vulgar or lewd fashion.
But no single rating caused more commotion and controversy than the X initially intended merely as a label for films made for by and about adults. The age cut-off was lowered to 17 the following year. And thats what the X rating meant when the present system was instituted back in 1968.
Over time very few MPAA-produced movies were given an X rating.
But no single rating caused more commotion and controversy than the X initially intended merely as a label for films made for by and about adults. Some films embraced the explicit rating. The rating system was and remains entirely voluntary. Starting December 14 and running through January 8 the Quad will screen 28 movies branded with the infamous X rating.
