“Cosby Show” or not, a New York appeal board for the Motion Picture Assn. of America, upheld Friday the “X” rating for the film “Angel Heart,” which features a steamy interracial love scene between “Cosby” kid Lisa Bonet and Mickey Rourke. In a special meeting, the board watched the film, heard a discussion about the rating and then voted that the film deserved an X rating. At issue was a scene between Bonet, the 19-year-old television star, and Rourke, who last appeared in the controversial “9 1/2 Weeks,” a film about an obsessive sexual relationship.
