The MPAA today upheld its R rating for the Holocaust documentary A Film Unfinished — the same R rating that Beastie Boy and indie distributor Adam Yauch decried as “bullsh*t” ahead of this week’s appeal. The ratings board was not swayed by the citation of the PG-13 Holocaust doc The Last Days , which, like A Film Unfinished features “disturbing images of Holocaust atrocities including graphic nudity,” but which was also produced by Steven Spielberg, so you do the math. Alas. A Film Unfinished opens Aug. 18. [ Oscilloscope Laboratories ]
