Moviegoers debate moral content, ratings
by Craig Lang
Kansan staff writer
Bolch, Green Bay, Wis., sophomore, said so many people complain about the moral values reflected in films. She said that if she worked in the film industry, she wouldn't be able to take the heat.
Becky Bolich would never want to be a producer or director.
"I would think it would be so hard," she said. "No matter what you do, people are going to come down on you. It's entertainment. People shouldn't take it literally."
spending their money on them. However, some think that the rating system established by the Motion Picture Association of America could be improved so people would understand why certain movies may be considered morally offensive.
Some University of Kansas students agree that even though most films do not reflect the moral value of most Americans, the films are not going to keep most people from
Jason Kerschner, Old Westbury, N.Y., sophomore, said he had noticed that an R-rated movie could have anything from a few bad words to extreme violence or sexual acts.
The Catholic Communication Campaign has set up a toll-free hotline moviegoers can call to hear what kind of moral content they can expect in new films. Pat Garcia, manager of operations for the Catholic Communications Campaign,
"The advertisers should say why a movie is rated R." he said.
said that the hotline was started in September, after a Gallup Poll was released showing that most people did not think movies reflected the average American's moral values.
Rodney Hill, Lawrence doctoral student in film, said that he did not believe the poll's results were accurate.
made the most money contained sex and violence.
"These movies are made by Americans, so they must reflect somebody's values," he said.
The hotline rates the moral value on a scale from A-1, nothing morally objectionable, to A-4, for adults and may require caution. Movies that are considered by the Campaign to be morally offensive are given a special rating of O. The number for the hotline is 1-800-311-4CCC.
She said if people were really upset with the way movies reflected moral values, they would stop going to see those movies.
Garcia said the movies that often
Garcia said that even though the film hotline is sponsored by the Catholic Communications Campaign, it is not strictly for Catholics.
"I think people can vote with their pocketbooks," she said. "As long as they make money, Hollywood will keep making them..."
But Rodney Hill said that he didn't like the idea that any organization was trying to say which movies were decent.
"It infuriates me that small groups speak for the entire country's value system," he said.
Drinking seasonal beer can add to your holiday cheer
By Brenden Sager
Kansan staff writer
Holiday cheer comes in many forms — but for Kevin Ruiz, it comes in bottles of seasonal beer.
"It's a little more expensive, but it's worth it," said Ruiz, Overland Park junior.
Seasonal beers are a growing phenomena since small-scale breweries developed special varieties to match the holidays, said Clint Wedel, employee at Jensen Retail Liquor, 620 West Ninth St. Wedel said his store carries about
10 kinds of holiday brew.
"You eat different kinds of food at different times of the year," she said. "You drink different kinds of beer, too."
Darker, richer flavors dominate the market during the winter months. Seasonal beers are flavored with different kinds of spices, said Mary Harrison, general manager of Boulevard Brewing Co. in Kansas City, Mo.
Harrison said Boulevard was offering a new holiday brew called Nutcracker Ale. The brew is only available in kegs.
Wedel said that college-age consumers often bought seasonal beers instead of major brands such as Coors or Budweiser and expected beer distributors to carry seasonal beers.
But even the big brewers are getting into the seasonal mix. Coors Brewing Co. offers Winterfest, and Anheuser-Busch Co. offers Christmas Brew.
Locally, Free State Brewing Co. 636 Massachusetts St., will offer Doppelbock — a strong, malty German-style beer, beginning next week.
Nutcracker is also brewed four days longer than Boulevard's other beers, she said.
Boulevard offers two other seasonal beers. Bob's 47 is offered in the fall and Irish Ale comes out around St. Patrick's day. Nutcracker Ale was added because of customer demand.
"the taste matures in the tank," she said.
