Well if it was like the film we would have been privy to Ennis' hand grab at the Rose Hotel and then things would have faded out just has Ellery was leading Ennis into bedroom with the latter clutching his erection.
Maybe we would read about a chaste embrace at the Holiday Inn if we were lucky - and maybe a few liplocks - and that would be it chums!
If this story ever gets on film we better make sure Ang Lee keeps his distance . We should insist on some French art house director who was trained in Sweden.

Casanova was rated PG in Holland!

My daughter, a typical adolescent, has parts of her life which she tries to keep private from her parents. Anyway, this morning, she wanted to show me something on her "My Space" page so I got to see that she has herself listed as "Hannah Fucking Nicoll." All right. I thought about that for a minute and then said, "So, who do you think you are, anyway? Jack Fuckin Twist?"
That got a laugh.

Theres films out there that contain FAR worse language that are only rated 15 or 18 over here..and thats for the language and the violence they contain.

I remember reading something that said that the use of the word "fuck" generated an instant R rating. That was awhile ago. Then some movie came out, a teenage movie as I recall, and fuck was said once. There was a debate and eventually it was given a PG-13 rating. I wish I could remember what movie it was. Anyone?
