Perhaps not many know, India resulted in a number of fantastic films each year. No fewer than a thousand titles (!) Film genres produced a country of more than 1 billion people that. Most of the production in the vicinity of Mumbai, which is the base of the Bollywood film industry. But outside Mumbai, it turns out there are also the bases of other film production that also produces the film in an amount not less. They are concentrated in several states, and produced the film with the language and local characteristics of the local area. Among others, the centers of the film industry are: 
  •  Kollywood: Tamil film industry center, based in Tamil 
  •  Tollygunge: Bengali-language film industry center, based in Kolkata 
  •  Tollywood: Telugu film industry center, based in Hyderabad

My name is Khan, broke many box office records, and became the highest-grossing Bollywood film overseas.

The films are full of dancing and singing like a dream world, often in contrast with many of the poor are easily found in the corners of big cities of India. Perhaps, the success of Indian films, which are sold at a reasonably priced ticket, one of them due to the desire of its citizens to escape the moment of the crush of daily life. Your readers deserve to know, in Indian cinema tickets sold for only 0.20 U.S. dollar or Rp 2000s, at 13,000 cinemas (!!!). That's a bit of advanced picture film industry of India. Although not perfect, but still a good example of how an industry should have professionally dimanajemeni. An excellent portrait, about the success of the industry that elevates the cultural and local characteristics of the main commodities.

Movie Rating System in Hollywood

Posted by Arsy

Dear readers,

American film censors, who called Motion Pictures Association of America (MPAA) create a rating system in classifying films that circulate in their country. With this system, the community is expected to assess whether a film worthy to be watched by them / their families, or not.
Some things became the basis of consideration of this rating, namely:
style of language used by the actors-actresses, the use of illegal drugs in the story, elements of violence and the level of sadism, and whether this film shows the bloody scene.
Starting from 2007, plus 1 more basic considerations, namely the presence or absence of smoking scenes.

The following classification system is based MPAA rating:
1. G - General audiences
Can be witnessed by all people of all ages, because it does not contain elements of a scene with no clothes, no element of sex and drugs. Violence is presented with a very minimalist, without the use of offensive language style. Usually given to the children films and several documentary films
2. PG - Parental Guidance Suggested
Can be witnessed by all people of all ages, but recommended for children to be accompanied by a parent. The cause is that the film may contain elements of underwear scenes, words that are not appropriate, mild violence or drug, although presented in a minimalist. Usually the children's film that did not make the G rating, will enter the rating of this type.
3. PG-13 - Parents strongly cautioned
Can be witnessed by all people of all ages, but for children under the age of 13 are required to be accompanied by a parent. The reason is the film contains a scene with no clothes on, though not explicit, harsh words, showing little scenes of bloody, and illegal drugs. Usually the winning films that want to reap as much revenue, will enter the rating of this type. Example: Titanic
4. R - Restricted
Can be witnessed by all people of all ages, but for children under 17 years are required to be accompanied by a parent. The reason is the film contains a scene with no clothes, rude or vulgar speech, displays of violence and use of illegal drugs are dominant throughout the film. Not many films of this type that can rule the box office ladder, because of the limited audience that can watch it. Example: The Passion of The Christ
5. NC-17 - No Children 17 or Under Admitted
Can only be witnessed by an audience aged over 17 years, without exception!

MPAA was founded in 1966, driven by community unrest will be the content of films such as Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock and the use of the word f *** in movie Ulysses and I'll Never Forget What's'isname .
Frankly, the MPAA is less favored among indie filmmakers because it is considered discriminatory
and only benefits big studio producers. This is due mostly indie films authenticity priority to the story, so some scenes in it appear 'as is'. Automatically, the MPAA gave many NC-17 rating, which resulted in at least the audience can watch indie films.
In addition, the institute also criticized for selecting its members are not transparent.
