The Lost City of Z @lostcityofz edited to gain PG-13 rating by the MPAA (USA)

The Playlist:

Earlier this month, it was revealed that James Gray‘s “The Lost City Of Z” starring Charlie Hunnam and Robert Pattinson had lost its appeal with the MPAA as they attempted to overturn the film’s R rating. So instead, the film has been edited to earn a PG-13 rating.
A recent bulletin from the Motion Picture Association of America (and a notice from Film Ratings; …) confirms that picture has been re-rated, and adds “only this edited version is rated.” As for what exactly got cut, your guess is as good as ours, though hopefully changes weren’t too drastic, and just tamped down any violence and nudity to get it under the wire for a PG-13 rating.

 The Film Stage:

A source close to The Lost City of Z tells us 14 frames, which amounts to less than one second, were excised from a battle sequence, which, apparently, Gray didn’t consider a concession or clear point of difference from what premiered in October. The absurdity of the MPAA flipping a switch on the basis of that alone is rather evident, but a different discussion for a different day. Rest easy: the film that I saw is essentially what you will see.
