- Way back when I attended parochial school, I *always* had to have
- written proof of my parents' consent for any movie more graphic than PG.
- This included PG-13 movies. It seems to me that there is no good reason
- to play any graphic movies in the classroom, regardless of parents'
- consent.
- BTW, was this the new version of The Lord of the Flies, or the older,
- black-and-white version?
