The latest film from Brokeback Mountain director Ang Lee - Lust, Caution - has been given an NC-17 rating in the US. The rarely awarded rating means the Chinese-language war film cannot be seen by anyone under the age of 17. It is thought the ruling by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) was made because of graphic sex scenes, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Some US cinemas refuse to show films with an NC-17 rating, thereby reducing the number of potential viewers. However, distributor Focus Features said it would not contest the ruling. "When we screened the final cut of this film, we knew we weren't going to change a frame," said Focus Features' James Schamus, who co-wrote the screenplay. "As with so many of his previous films, Oscar-winning director Ang Lee has crafted a masterpiece about and for grown-ups," added Schamus, who worked with Lee on Brokeback Mountain. Its been released soon in the states but for some reason the UK are getting it in January 2008As for the film .....You've read the title ........need I say more??? lol
