Has anyone else had the problem of parents bringing their babies to NC-17/graphic movies? I had to call the police to remove a couple from a theatre who refused to leave after I told them they couldn't bring their baby (about a year old) into the theater to see Baise Moi (U.S. Title - Rape Me). I understand the baby won't necessarily comprehend what's going on but like I told them..."no one under 18 is allowed into this movie." (It contains extremely graphic scenes of rape, sex and brutality.) This is the second time this situation has escalated to this point (the first being for the film Romance) and it's not uncommon that they're turned away at the box office before purchasing tickets - but not without putting up a fight...What's wrong with these parents?!!!

Over in the U.K the worst I have seen was a baby (in a pram next to the mothers seat, maybee in a wheelchair space) in Dragonheart a few year ago. I was just asking myself "Why".
