This is a list of films rated NC-17 (No Children 17 and Under Admitted; originally No Children Under 17 Admitted) by the Motion Picture Association of America's Classification and Rating Administration (CARA). It includes X-rated films reassigned an NC-17 rating, and titles which were originally rated NC-17, but later re-edited for a different rating. Titles with surrendered ratings are usually released unrated to avoid the stigma of NC-17. Some films are released without an MPAA rating because the filmmaker expects an NC-17. Changes in ratings are due to resubmission or appeal by a film's producers. Films receiving an NC-17 are often cut and resubmitted in hopes of earning an R rating, which allows distribution to more outlets than an NC-17 rating. Still, there are some exceptions: for example, in 2004, Fox Searchlight Pictures released ''The Dreamers'' with an NC-17 rating; this film grossed $2.5 million in its United States theatrical release, a respectable result for a specialized film with a targeted audience.〔 The same year, Sony Pictures Classics released ''Bad Education'' with an NC-17 rating; it grossed $5.2 million in the United States theatrically, earning back more than its budget of $5 million.〔 Furthermore, in 2007, Focus Features released ''Lust, Caution'' with an NC-17 rating; it grossed $4.6 million in the United States theatrically,〔 and Focus was very satisfied with the film's theatrical release.〔 NC-17 films also tended to gross more on the home media market. For example, ''Showgirls'' became one of MGM's top 20 all-time bestsellers,〔 and ''Lust, Caution'' has generated more than $18 million from DVD rentals in the United States.〔 Occasionally an R-rated film will have footage or language added to earn an NC-17 rating and its accompanying notoriety. In at least one case, an R-rated film was re-rated NC-17 even though no edits were made: The 1969 Sam Peckinpah film ''The Wild Bunch'', originally rated R, was resubmitted by Warner Bros. in 1993 before an expected re-release; to their surprise, it was rated NC-17, delaying the re-release while the decision was appealed.〔〔 Some titles include the reasons the rating was given. In 1990, the Classification and Rating Administration began including a brief statement of the reason for a specific film's R rating; several years later it began giving reasons for all film ratings. Since the NC-17 rating was created in 1990 to replace the X rating〔 (''The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover'', ''Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!'', ''Life Is Cheap... But Toilet Paper Is Expensive, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre III'' were all given X ratings that year), this list does not include X-rated films, unless they were later re-rated NC-17. A majority of the films on this list either were edited to obtain an R and/or had the NC-17 rating surrendered. Few films have kept the rating for theatrical or DVD release. ==0-9== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of NC-17 rated films」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
