Only if there's some sort of educational value to be gained from watching the film.

From my own personal experience, watching movies and other media is far more educational than  just about anything taught in high school.

Well, that doesn't mean rated R movies are necessarily good teaching tools. Would there be much educational value from watching a rated-R horror flick? As amusing as it is to watch the more idiotic characters get killed off one by one... oh, wait, that teaches natural selection.
