"Innuendo" is NOT Italian for anal sex. And the movie-going public-- even FIFTH GRADERS FROM South Central-- are NOT clueless.

"Innuendo" Good one.

Having the violence happen off-camera is a Mirage tradition. E&L even spoke of doing that in some interview...somewhere .....can't remember where I read it. Maybe Eastman's Artobiography? There were exceptions to that rule, of course, but it seems there was an effort not to indulge in too much, oh, what was Dan Berger's phrase? "Adolescent" bloodshed.
