It looks like the fight for the documentary Bully to receive a PG-13 rating is not over yet, with the announcement that 20 members of congress signed the online petition to the MPAA to re-rate the film. A bipartisan group led by Rep. Mike Honda wrote the following:
“We are writing to express our sincere disappointment in the MPAA’s decision to issue an ‘R’ rating for the soon-to-be-released documentary Bully. This important project shows the real life anguish of many teenagers in this country who are tormented, harassed, and bullied by their peers. This truth should be shared with as wide an audience as is appropriate and possible. We believe an R-rating excludes the very audience for whom this film is desperately important.”
This should most certainly make the MPAA reevaluate the film’s rating and will hopefully prove to be a big win for the Weinstein Co.
