Folks, you've been seeing quite a bit of talk here at AICN about the MPAA over time. You know my stance, but right now there is a true raging battle going on about how our films in the United States are rated and exhibited. There are two sides. THe side of Jack Valenti that claims the only people upset about these sorts of things are film critics... not you. And then the side that is led by film critics and film journalists. Today a quite wonderful and sensible piece was written by Roger Ebert as a direct retort to the article by Jack Valenti the day before. CLICK HERE to read Ebert's Variety piece on the MPAA!!!
