Movie bosses have re-edited an intimate scene in actress Mena Suvari's upcoming movie 'The Knot' to land a less-restrictive age rating

However, distributors were keen to land a 15 rating to open the film up to a younger audience and as a result, they have re-edited a saucy strip club scene. "(The) distributor chose to reduce a focus on sexualised female nudity in a strip club scene in order to achieve a 15 classification.
Cuts made in accordance with BBFC Guidelines and policy. An uncut 18 classification was available," a statement from the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) read. The movie is set for release in October.u00a0
