My first R-rated movie was MASH. Snuck in. I think the theater owners had decided that it was such a great movie that it shouldn't be rated "R" and were looking the other way and letting teenagers in pretty much indiscriminately. This was back in the days before movies were a corporate experience and I guess theater owners made their own distinctions somewhat ad hoc about what sort of thing to worry about. I kind of remember that a lot of people had disagreed with that one being given an "R" rating, in modern days it would be strictly "PG".
