Also, Hair was rated PG, too, in spite of the nudity.
And boys -- let's watch the swearing.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

JAWS was PG, Hec. Amazingly, there was no big stink, even though I think the nasty bits in that are far worse than the one heart ripping scene in Temple of Doom. But it was the 70s.
Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane was PG. While I suspect there was body double used for Jodie Foster's bare-ass-about-to-have-sex scene, she was still playing a 14 (15?) year old. Yet another one you couldn't even get away with even as an R in this country today.

Back then, nobody was thinking of the children. Won't somebody think of the children?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I guess boobies became more dangerous over time

People back then just didn't realize what they were capable of.

Definitely, since I remember seeing boobies watching Monty Python on PBS.
Not to mention the "nobody panic" scene in Airplane.

it might have been the boobies that drew me to Monty Python in the first place.

move out and draw fire
I've met the actress who was the first girl killed in Jaws.
So there's that.

TV too. "I Claudius" miniseries had a number of bare boobs. It was a BBC import of course, but PBS ran it as was, tits and all.
