The Last Boy Scout
The Last Boy Scout is a 1991 thriller film starring Bruce Willis as a former Secret Service agent, and Damon Wayans as a retired professional football player, who join forces to prevent a corrupt United States Senator from being assassinated. The movie was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures and Geffen Pictures, and directed by Tony Scott.
At the time of its' release, The Last Boy Scout joined a select club of films vying for the unofficial record for most number of times the word fuck has been used in a film intended for mainstream distribution. The word, either outright or in participle form, was uttered 102 times. The movie was rated R (restricted) by the Motion Picture Association of America and O ("morally offensive") by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops' Office for Film and Broadcasting, no doubt due in large part to the unprecedented level of verbal vulgarity (although the film also contains considerable sexual and violent content). Amazingly, this record has been exceeded on multiple occasions since; indeed, the 1997 release Nil By Mouth fits 470 examples of this vulgarity into its' 128 minutes.
