Showlevel is the field you need, but it is NOT automatically filled
based on anything.  If you want to fill it based on the movie rating,
your scheme makes sense.  Honestly I'm happy with the no auto-fill.
It allows me to make decisions based on my personal review of the
movie rather than someone elses.  Yes, getting them in was a hassle.
We use them to mean:

  1: Everyone OK
  2: Teens OK, Younger kids with supervision
  3: Teenagers OK, no Younger Kids allowed
  4: Adults Only

In our house, those don't necessarily line up to movie ratings.  When
I wrote the code to use 3 different passwords (for levels 2, 3, and 4)
so I could use this feature, my wife and I printed out a spreadsheet
of all 400+ movies we had at the time and sat over dinner and went
through them one by one and made decisions.  Old fasioned, but it
worked ;-)  I ended up updating the DB by hand with those changes.  I
guess it's what I get for not trusting the MPAA.
