Kermode's View of Censorship

Film critic and broadcaster Mark Kermode argues against censorship using the following points:
  1. Everyone has different reactions and interpretations on what they see in the film.
  2. It is unfair that we are being told what we can and can't watch. As human beings we know what is right and what is wrong so it should be our choice whether to watch it or not.
  3. The issue of responsibility; policing films is impossible, the films we watch should'nt be seen to be encouraging however they should be seen as showing the audience realistic situations e.g. rape/ murder etc.
