Bully is a documentary that some might call “important;” it’s an in-depth look at America’s bullying crisis that doesn’t pull any punches about how rude kids can be to each other. In the trailer, which you can watch after the jump, there’s footage of kids getting slapped around on the school bus, even with a camera trained on them. It’s supposed to come out in limited release on March 30, but there may be a hitch in the process: the R-rating that was just handed down by the MPAA on grounds of language. An appeal to contest the ruling fell short by one vote, and The Weinstein Company, which is releasing the movie, says it might abandon the MPAA for a little while. “As of today, The Weinstein Company is considering a leave of absence from the MPAA for the foreseeable future,” TWC co-chairman Harvey Weinstein wrote in a statement. “We respect the MPAA and their process but feel this time it has just been a bridge too far.”
“11 years old… desperate enough to take his own life.”
“They punch me, strangle me…”“Kids will be kids” is not an acceptable answer.

Why the fuck would anyone respect the MPAA anymore, or their processes, or their rating system?
