CENSORED

Last evening I walked down to Allentown Symphony Hall to see my movie poster in their window. I found that they disgraced my poster by putting a note on it that reads: “For Mature Audiences Only, no one under the age of 18 will be admitted”. Who in the hell do they think they are? They can not censor my film or the audience. We spent $3,000 to rent the theater and will have to pay for about $1700 of other expenses. I have a signed contract from them, holding them harmless. Yet they feel they can tell who is appropriate to see it? I do not agree with the MPAA but they even have a NC-17 rating. Where do they get off stating 18? I feel very strongly that directors and producers should take on the responsibility of their work. I feel that anyone over the age of 16 should be allowed to see my film. THEY HAVE NOT SEEN MY FILM! This is a violation of my first amendment rights. I have the right to express my self and I have with this film. There is no sex in it, yes there is nudity. Nothing more than you won’t see in a museum. 

I made two attempts to call them to speak with them about it. They never called me back. I am very frustrated!
