R-Rated Movie List for Transitioning Mormons (Mormon Transitions)

"For movie nerds like me, being a Mormon kid in Utah came with a lot of anxiety. While I wanted to explore and experience the full depth and rawness that the medium offered, I knew that watching R-rated movies was all but forbidden. In high school watching R-rated movies was an exciting act of rebellion, but it always came with the steep price of guilt. It's been my guilty pleasure ever since. The truth is, we all missed out. By any objective standard, many of the best movies ever made are rated R. Now, I have all the usual reservations about the sexism, gratuitous violence, and other harmful messages that we are pummeled with by all the mass media we consume. In my home, R-rated movies were a rare treat. If you're like me, you've wanted to make up for lost time. So here's a short list of my 30 favorite R-rated films. There are dozens of other films that could or should be added. I'd maybe call this a starting point." - mormontransitions.org
