‘Blonde’ star Ana de Armas is confused on why movie got NC-17 rating: ‘I didn't understand why that happened’
Ana de Armas is confused over the NC-17 rating given to her upcoming Netflix movie, "Blonde," about the life of Marylin Monroe. The Motion Picture Association of America typically gives a film an NC-17 rating when the movie contains gratuitous violence, obscene sex and/or nudity and harsh language. An NC-17 rating is different than an R rating because minors 17 and under are allowed to see rated R movies in theaters when accompanied by an adult and are not allowed in an NC-17 movie at all. The Cuban actress doesn’t understand why "Blonde" was given such a high rating, claiming she has seen movies that feature much more obscene content.
