Oh, what the hell...

La mala educación ("Bad Education") is rated NC-17 in the States, and only 15 in the UK. I can't see it in my own country, but if I were British I'd be fine.

I mean, really, what is it? The gay sex? Hello, Velvet Goldmine was only R. Is it that much worse in Spanish

I saw it in Paris (back when I lived there in May. Oh, sigh....those were the days.) It is BRILLIANT. And not particularly graphic, either.

Just get the DVD, which will come out very soon. I have a horrible Italian bootleg copy....

That's the trouble, though - if it's rated NC-17, my library is not going to carry it, the stores that rent out DVDs are not going to carry it, and my parents are certainly going to object to me buying it.

I was thinking of watching that movie this weekend...

Hi there... new to your LJ and just wanted to say hi.

I am in complete agreement with your Almodovar assessment. I bought the movie off of amazon.com and it was great...

Keep a list of the great things... :-) And then go wild on your birthday.

I love Almodóvar. Have you seen Todo sobre mi madre?
