Producers Appeal Meryl Streep Movie's R Rating




The producers of Meryl Streep's new movie It's Complicated, which brings Oscars co-hosts Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin together as love rivals, are to appeal an `R' rating classification in America.

Officials at the MPAA's Classification and Rating Administration have ruled film fans under the age of 17 won't be able to see the movie without a consenting adult because of "some drug content and sexuality".

But producers feel the picture has been dealt with too harshly and the R could affect any Oscar hopes - and they're seeking a softer rating by appeal.

The film is due for release on December 10.
