X-rated films

X-rated films are movies that contain explicit sexual content or scenes, which make them unsuitable for a general audience, particularly minors. The "X" rating signifies that the film has been deemed too graphic for standard distribution and often restricts viewing to adults only. This classification can include a wide range of genres, encompassing both artistic and purely explicit works. Over time, the rating system has evolved, with newer classifications like NC-17 being introduced, but the X rating remains historically significant in discussions about adult cinema and censorship.
