You only need a gruaniad
A British newspaper, reporting on "Fahrenheit 9/11", says it "has been rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America, meaning no one under 17 can see it.". R can be seen by those 17 or younger if they have suitable supervision. And NC-17 can't be seen by 17-year-olds.
Update: The Guardian has since done a stealth edit, saying the film "has been rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America, meaning no one under 17 can see it unless accompanied by an adult." And while my statement about the R classification was technically correct, 17-year-olds can see an R-rated film without supervision.
