They don't actually ban films, they just refuse certification. |
I guess its like this then:
In the UK, Refused Classification = banned
In the US, Refused Classification = perfectly legal
thats good for the Americans then cause there is tons of movies that are refused classifiaction in the US, way more than in the UK.
Here in Sweden we actually don't have any official rating system for home video releases(but we do for thearatical releases though), the distributors are allowed to make their own ratings and sometimes the stores who sell dvds decides to follow these ratings, but there isnt any law forcing them to do so!
