That's the biggest appeal for me, the world needs more quirky-weird movies. I can't wait!

I’m okay with anything above a 30sec ovation.

What is the nudity in this movie?

I don't know for sure what the nudity is, but whenever I see the MPAA use the term "graphic nudity" it makes me suspect it involves frontal male nudity.

The fact that they won the appeal makes me wonder if the nudity is in a picture or painting featured in the film as opposed to one of the actors being naked in the film.

Regardless, this is one of only a couple of movies I'm actually eagerly looking forward to this year and I'll be seeing this on opening weekend.

I think the last Wes Anderson movie I saw was Isle of Dogs and before that Life Aquatic. I like what I've seen of his films, but his films stike me as thinking they are a bit more clever than they are (not that he isn't talented). But I will probably end up seeing this one and maybe catching up a bit.

You make that sound like it's a problem.

Not sure if you're joking, but in case you're serious...

It's more an observation of the MPAA's terminology.

A movie can have a combined total of 10 minutes of bare jumblies and it's "nudity"; a 2-second shot of a guy's wang and suddenly it's "graphic nudity".

Just seems like you're making a big deal out of nothing.

I'll put my recommendation in for Moonrise Kingdom, it's a cute movie. It's more of the Wes idiosyncratic "cleverness" but the performance by the little boy is great.

WTH?

A previous poster asked what the nudity was. I took a guess based on MPAA terminology.

That's it.

[BluBonnet]

Them's the bare facts.

If you really want to know, it's from a woman.

One is a reproductive organ and considered explicit; the other is not. Thus the difference in ratings.

More specifically someone on reddit asked about the nudity as they wanted to take their kids, and a person that has seen it confirmed it's only a couple of seconds long and it's obscured/out of focus.

[BuckNaked2k]

Was Léa Seydoux' unkempt bush considered graphic nudity? Asking for a friend.

That's pretty much the only way you'd ever get me to see another Wes Anderson film.

[Cardboard_killer]

Of course the NPR crowd would love it.

Wes Anderson has outdone himself with 'Asteroid City'

Full frontal female nudity for like half a second and kinda obscured as it’s a reflection in a mirror rather than a major closeup or anything. I’m guessing those circumstances are why the MPA agreed to lower the movie from R to PG-13 on the appeal.

Though funny enough they did have the red band trailer for No Hard Feelings before the movie, and some kids were at this. Oops (I’ve seen theaters mess up red bands before)
