War of the Worlds star Dakota, 12, has signed up to appear in Hounddog.
The screenplay calls for Fanning's character to be raped in one explicit scene and to appear naked or clad only in "underpants" in several other horrifying moments.
A source close to the film said: "The two taboos in Hollywood are child abuse and the killing of animals.
"In this movie, both things happen." Fanning's mother, Joy, and her Hollywood agent, Cindy Osbrink, see the movie, written and directed by Deborah Kampmeier, as a possible Oscar vehicle for the pint-size star.
bad ju-ju for all involved...
She's a great actress. I wish she and her parents would reconsider.
Frankly I can't stand Dakota Fanning.
In War Of The Worlds she was at her insufferable best.
Oops, sorry, missed posting the URL in the correct box. Don't see an edit button anywhere around here...
Ask Ned Beatty...
Ugliness and perversity now constitute the cutting edge of "art." Up is down and square is round.
I'm speechless.
To prevent duplication, please do not alter the heading. Thanks.
So will the FBI arrest every studio employee involved in this movie, or will they wait for someone to download it off the internet and then send them to the pokey for 100 years?
Gotta keep pushing the envelope! And it's OK, because it's "art".
Paging Brooke Shields.
Maybe not anymore. I just posted this thread: Senate Goes After Hollywood Sex Scenes
Probably going to be directed by Roman Polanski.
Dakota is destined for the Betty Ford clinic. Thanks mom and dad. Any sane parent would say "Absolutely NOT!"
This has got to be illegal.
Glad to see someone else can't stand the kid! I've seen her on talk shows and she is over the edge. Tries to act very adult or is too adult-she has skipped childhool. She is already an overbearing Hollywierd type! I wouldn't think a parent would want their child to do such a film. How much money do these people need anyway!
Well, fwiw, if the XXX movie makers can keep up with the Section 2257 requirements then I can't imagine that the Hollywood studios will have any problem with them.
That's Entertainment!...
NOT!
"Fanning's mother, Joy, and her Hollywood agent, Cindy Osbrink, see the movie, written and directed by Deborah Kampmeier, as a possible Oscar vehicle for the pint-size star."
Isn't this child abuse??? These so-called "adults" are exploiting this child for their own financial gain.
