12 Controversial MPAA Movie Ratings Decisions

Henry & June (1990)

Gross: $11.5 Million (Worldwide)

In 1990, Henry & June became the first film to be released with the new NC-17 rating. The tale of a love triangle between novelist Henry Miller, his wife June and erotica writer Anais Nin in 1930's Paris proved, if nothing else, that you could make a serious adult film with tons of sex and still bore audiences to tears.
