Mother said Josh Powell threatened her
NEWTON, Mass., Nov. 26 (UPI) -- A Boston-area teen featured in the new Coen brothers movie "A Serious Man" was unable to take his friends to see it at a local theater because of its R rating.
Aaron Wolff, 15, and his buddies went to the West Newton Cinema for a Tuesday night showing. They were turned away because they had no parents or guardians in tow, the Boston Globe reported Thursday.
When Wolff called his mother, Judy Kogan, and she came to the theater, employees first wanted proof she is Wolff's legal guardian and then said she could not buy tickets for the other teens.
David Bramante, one of the owners of the theater, said it has a policy of strict enforcement of guidelines for R-rated movies, which bar anyone under 17 from seeing them without a parent.
The movie, described as a black comedy, stars Michael Stuhlbarg as a college professor whose life is coming apart.
