The current issue has nothing at all to do with needs and everything to do with choice. Person A chooses not to see this movie because he/she finds it offensive. That has nothing to do with Person B's right to see the movie. Whatever it is that offends Person A obviously doesn't hold the same stigma for Person B. The idea of a universal morality, while very popular since Judeao-Christian philosphy became prevalent, is widely inconsistent with reality, considering the various religions, lifestyles and beliefs in the world.
And just ato note... Children, while being brought up constantly in this debate it seems, are under their parents supposed guidance, and are not an issue, since censorship of any sort begins in the home. (And I wish I'd thought of that a few posts ago.)
