The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) called the attention of the distributors of the movie “Third World Romance” due to its movie trailer.
The said movie is tobilled by actors Carlo Aquino and Charlie Dizon.
The said directives has something with the script where Britney (character of Dizon) uttered the word ‘p*t*ng *n*” in a number of occasions.
MTRCB posted on Instagram its directives:
“It has come to our attention that an unclassified and unrated version of the trailer of ‘Third World Romance’ with the expletive phrase “p*t*ng *n*” in one of the scenes is being exhibited in cinemas.
The said uncensored version of the trailer has not been reviewed by the Board, hence, has NO permit to exhibit.”
We would like to remind all cinema operators of Section 1, Article III, of Memorandum Circular No. 04-2014 which provide that “only such versions of trailer duly approve and passed by the Board shall be fit for public exhibition.”
The introduction of any change or revision to the trailer reviewed shall render the trailer, as changed or revised, as whole new version requiring a new independent application for review with the Board.
In connection, we strongly advise that you refrain from exhibiting the said version of the trailer.”
Further, a Notice to Appear and Explain will be served to the distributor/producer of the said trailer.
“For your proper guidance and strict compliance.”
