Film regulation and the BBFC - blog tasks:

 1) Research the BBFC in more detail: what is the institution responsible for? How is it funded? What link does it have to government? This history of the BBFC page may help.

For the classification and regulation of films . Non-governmental body funded through charged fees.

2) Read this BBFC guide to how films are rated. Summarise the process in 50 words.

They have chief executives that validate amongst their workers that view the film and rate it based on sex , violence , 

3) Read this BBFC section on landmark decisions. Why did The Dark Knight generate a large amount of media coverage regarding its certificate? Do you agree with the 12A certificate The Dark Knight was awarded?

Many consumers confirmed their beliefs that the age rating for The Dark Knight should not have been a 12A and should have actually been listed at a more mature age . I believe that The Dark Knight should have been rated a 15 .

4) What are the guidelines for a 12A certificate - Blinded By The Light's cinema certificate (it was rated 12 for its home video release)?

Moderate violence is allowed but it should not dwell on detail.

5) The BBFC website offers an explanation of every classification it makes and detailed case studies on selected titles. Look at the rating for Blinded By The Light and explain why it was given a 12A certificate for cinema release.

Because of racist language and behaviour, moderate bad language .
