james_davis_nicollthat in the UK, the film version of Watership Down was rated a children's movie when it was first released. Interesting.

Date: 2016-04-06 08:16 am (UTC)The book was marketed to children, like 9 - 12, though? It certainly had rabbit death (the nastiest thing for me was the references to myxomatosis) but it wasn't appallingly gruesome like your movie experience.
Changing the age target in making the movie seems bound to create problems! And now I wonder what some other examples have been.
