My former bishop was in the 2nd Quorum of the Seventy, and he was assigned to South America somewhere. We got their email updates, and in one of them, he talked about seeing the Patriot (outside the US, so no MPAA rating) and recommended it as a "must see" movie. I'm sure he wasn't aware of the R rating in the states.

So, I once had a General Authority recommend that I see a rated R movie.
