Abstract

Countries in the world have adopted legal measures to conduct film classification and censorship. Whether in the birthplace of the film or in the flourishing place of film development, film censorship and classification as an institutional tool can not only protect the legitimate rights and interests of minors, but also play an important and irreplaceable role in social norms and even ideology. The censorship and classification system of the film does vary according to the degree of development of spiritual civilization and material civilization in different countries. Based on this reality, it is necessary to establish a film classification and censorship system in China as soon as possible.
