I know you're joking ... Nicole Kidman is gorgeous ... but a 10-year-old who'd be interested in kissing her is SICK.
Re lucky kid comments: Yeah, but 10-year old characters are often played by 14 or 15 year-old actors. The symbolism might be screwed up for the viewer, but it wouldn't be so bad for the actor on the set. "No pre-pubescents were molested for the film." Like dolphin-free tuna, so to speak.
Yeah, it was a jole. But there is a lesson here, too. It's awfully easy to project myself onto this 10-yo kid. That's the real danger of the "it's art" crowd, BTW. They forget what damage their "art" or their own sexual desires can cause to kids.
