WASHINGTON (Hollywood Reporter) - Tucked deep inside a massive bill designed to track sex offenders and prevent children from being victimized by sex crimes is language that could put many Hollywood movies in the same category as hard-core, X-rated films.

The provision added to the Children's Safety Act of 2005 would require any film, TV show or digital image that contains a sex scene to come under the same government filing requirements that adult films must meet.

Currently, any filmed sexual activity requires an affidavit that lists the names and ages of the actors who engage in the act. The film is required to have a video label that claims compliance with the law and lists where the custodian of the records can be found. The record-keeping requirement is known as Section 2257, for its citation in federal law. Violators could spend five years in jail.

Under the provision inserted into the Children's Safety Act, the definition of sexual activity is expanded to include simulated sex acts like those that appear in many movies and TV shows.

i wish people would be more intelligent and see that they don't even really have the safety of children in mind, the people they are supposedly targeting don't work within laws to begin with.

they are just trying to control and censor everything, and to do that they disguise their agenda, a wolf in sheep's clothing if you will.

How does this bill prevent children from being victimized? Hiding sex from them will stop this?? I think that parents need to get a better grip on thier families.

While the provision is designed to ensure that children aren't abused, its critics say it will do little to stem child sex abuse.

"Guys who are making this stuff don't care about reporting requirements," one source said. "When they're caught, they're looking at 30 years in prison. There's no indication they're going to fill out the paperwork."
