Hollywood Culture Wars

WASHINGTON — The MPAA is marking the 50th anniversary of its film ratings by releasing data on how movies have been rated over the last half-century.
The R rating has been placed on by far and away the majority of the movies since then, more than half of the almost 30,000 titles that have been given classifications.
The breakdown: Since 1968, the first year of the rating classifications, there have been 17,202 movies rated R, 5,578 rated M/GP/PG, 4,913 rated PG-13 and 1,574 rated G. Just 524 movies have been rated X or NC-17, reflecting the reluctance of exhibitors to carry those titles.
