Hirasawa Go relays news that Wakamatsu's Embryo Goes A-Poaching (choose 
your title) is caught up  in a new censorship controversy in France. 
The culture minister declared it pornography and has given it an R18 
rating. This is the latest in a series of similar ratings, and seems to 
be roiling the film scene there. A coalition of groups is organizing to 
protest, including LA SRF (Societe des Realisateurs de Films), L'ARP 
(Societe civile des Auteurs Realisateurs Producteurs), LE SFCC (Le 
Syndicat francais de la Critique de Cinema), LE SPI (Le Syndicat des 
Producteurs Independants), L'ACID (L'Association du Cinema Independant 
pour sa diffusion), LE GNCR (Le Groupement National des Cinemas de 
Recherche), Carrefour des Festivals, Le Festival d'Amiens, 
L'Observatoire de la liberte d'expression en matiere de creation de  la 
Ligue des Droits de l'Homme.

Such a troublemaker!
