Movie Raided

I was gonna travel down from Sydney to see this also.....Damn I should of went


Quoted from http://us.imdb.com/StudioBrief/#3


A screening of director Larry Clark's controversial film Ken Park, which contains graphic sexual scenes involving teen characters, was raided in Sydney, Australia Thursday night, where the film has been officially banned by the country's Office of Film and Literature Censorship. The screening, attended by about 500 persons including David Stratton, Australia's premier film critic, had been arranged by a group called Free Cinema. In a radio interview, Stratton said today (Friday): "I think what [the screening] was all about was raising consciousness of the fact that in Australia in the year 2003 we are still banning films that are being screened everywhere else in the world, including New Zealand." Of Ken Park, Stratton remarked: "It is an explicit film, it is a confronting film, but I think it's a film that certainly deserves to be seen by an adult audience." Meanwhile, James Hewison, director of the Melbourne International Film Festival, said today that he intends to continue to lobby the government for permission to show the film at this year's festival set to open on July 23.
