Larry Mantle discusses the topic of “sanitizing” films, or re-editing them for family consumption. This issue has become controversial in the film industry because companies like CleanFlix and FamilyFlix are profiting from this practice through the rental of these re-edited films. There is also technology available from a company named ClearPlay, Inc. that which markets electronics and software that allows parents to skip over objectionable material. Larry talks with the CEO of ClearPlay, Bill Aho about his company’s technology, and takes listener calls.
