FCC in US decrees this film actionable.
15 March 2006
I haven't seen this film, but today it was announced that one of the Spanish-language broadcast services in the US was going to be fined by the Federal Communications Commission for running it in 2004, a film about, as one listing puts it in Spanish, "the strange relation a woman has with the man who violated her." Sounds kind of unfortunate, from some perspectives, perhaps, but one wonders if it is truly not something reasonable adults should be allowed to see on US television...but the same Commission session decided that such things as episodes of WITHOUT A TRACE and the PBS documentary series THE BLUES were also actionable. To say nothing of the SuperBowl halftime show featuring Janet Jackson, and another football game broadcast where a player mimed mooning the audience (mimed, mind you).
