So, which cut is the Barbarella BD?
It carries that PG rating on back, but everything I see says it is the original "unrated" version.
Has the actual PG version been on home video?
I can only conclude that the PG rating was for the 98 minute film found on the Blu-ray disc, as CARA rules prohibit the distributor from using the PG rating for different versions of the film.
Please remember the film was never rated on its initial theatrical release in the US, so any re-release of the film in the US by a member of the MPA (that is, Paramount) needed to be submitted for a rating. There was no evidence that the film was cut in 1977 in order to get a PG rating from CARA.
Here is an example of a film (The Owl and the Pussycat) that was re-edited in order to get a PG rating:

On the other hand, Barbarella's PG rating was based on it being a re-issue (not a re-edit):

The subsequent home media releases in the USA from 1979 to 2012 for Barbarella: Queen of the Galaxy had the same rating (PG) and runtime (98 mins):
1979 Betamax
1980 VHS
1981 Laser disc (Pan & Scan)
1993 Laser disc (Widescreen)
1999 DVD
2012 Blu-ray
Hope that clarified the matter. | Posted: Topic Replies: 7, Topic Views: 6542 | |
