Then defend Bio-Dome!
The only American writers who dare inject judgment into these situations are few, and their point of view is usually something as 'stunning" as "leave people alone to live their lives as they see fit, if they're consenting adults". Yawn.
They must give you free membership at NAMBLA. You're doing a helluva job with their talking points.
Sometimes I just want a movie to entertain and sometimes I want to be challenged to think.
I watched To Kill A Mockingbird Sunday afternoon for umpteenth time. While perhaps not as graphic as what is described in this movie, it is still disturbing as it was meant to be and Im a better person for it because it makes me feel and then think.
From when Atticus shoots the rabid dog to the perceived menace of 'Boo' Radley to the stalking of the children, Scout and Jem in the dark woods and the very real menace of racism at its vilest, the novel and film deals with rape, murder, intimidation, vigilantism and violence with young children in the middle of it all and in harms way. It also is a story about the importance of rule of law and justice for all, of a father's wisdom and love and the goodness of most people and in community.
I think it all depends on whether a rape scene is relevant and important in telling the story and what the story is saying about us as a society or whether it is done to merely shock or titillate. I dont know enough about this movie to pass judgment on its possible redeeming qualities despite its disturbing content.
I also remember studying Greek Mythology in school at about 12 and that was some pretty sick stuff too
rape, kidnapping, adultery, lust, murder
BTW - sounds a lot like many stories in Bible too.
