The “Blue Valentine” Cunnilingus Scene That Launched An NC-17 Rating

[jwplayer id="7065051"]

A few months ago, Harvey Weinstein launched a flurry of press with his decision to appeal the NC-17 rating slapped on "Blue Valentine." The reason for that NC-17 rating? This here scene of Ryan Gosling going down on Michelle Williams.

Was the MPAA right to consider this scene fit for mature audiences only? Or does it belong firmly in the world of R ratings (where, thanks to Weinstein's efforts, it now resides)? We can't even begin to wrap our heads around the byzantine laws and processes of movie ratings, so don't ask us to weigh in on this one...but we will say that the scene (and, of course, the entire movie) is well worth a watch.
