An NC-17 rated motion picture is one that, in the view of the Rating Board, most parents would consider patently too adult for children 17 and under. Nobody under 17 will be admitted under any circumstance. NC-17 does not mean "obscene" or "pornographic" in the common or legal meaning of those words, and should not be construed as a negative judgment in any sense. This rating just simply signals that the content is appropriate only for an old people audience.
