"L.I.E.," an NC-17 film released in theaters last week has been getting rave reviews from film critics and homosexuals. The film just won two awards at the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Film Festival (also known as the "Outfest"): The Grand Jury Award for OUTstanding American Narrative Feature and tied for the Grand Jury Award for OUTstanding Actor, giving the award to Paul Franklin Dano, the young boy who is pursued by a middle-aged child molester.
Michael Cuesta is the director of the film and wrote the screenplay with Stephen Ryder and his brother Gerald Cuesta. The film was produced by Lot 47 Films in association with Alter Ego/Belladonna. (Belladonna provides production services for European commercial, music video, and TV production companies. They have done work for AT&T and American Express, plus music videos for groups like N'Sync, and KRS-One.) Lot 47 Films co-owner Jeff Lipsky helped distribute "Lolita" when he was with the Samuel Goldwyn Company.
"L.I.E.," which stands for Long Island Expressway, tells a sympathetic story of Howie, a 15-year-old boy who is pursued by Big John Harrigan, a former Marine and child molester. Harrigan is played by British actor Brian Cox.
Film critic Rex Reed, writing in "The New York Observer," says, ".Resist all temptations to avoid this exceptional film because of its subject matter (pedophilia) and see 'L.I.E.' fast. Trust me on this. You will experience one of the most profoundly moving motion pictures this year."
"Guide" magazine, a mainstream homosexual publication has criticized the Motional Picture Association of America (MPAA) for giving this film an NC-17 rating. A "Guide" editorialist noted that "'L.I.E.' is being muzzled because it suggests that the relationship between an adult man and a teenage boy, a relationship first sparked by sexual interest but never consummated, need not be monstrous."
"Guide" continues: "That a boylover might have an interest in a boy that transcends sex, that he might act responsibly, that he might provide the love missing in an adolescent's life, that he might be something other than the predatory monster everywhere else depicted-these are the ideas that so offend the MPAA." ("Guide" magazine employs as its feature editor Bill Andriette, the former editor of the North American Man-Boy Love Association [NAMBLA] Bulletin.)
One of "L.I.E's" screenwriters is Stephen Ryder, who teaches writing at New York University. Ryder was recently asked in an Internet interview how he managed to make the child molester character so charming. He replied, "That was my plan [laughter]-My evil plan." Ryder then explains that he considers the relationship between Big John and Howie to be "consensual" and that men like Big John are "just regular ordinary non-felonious people."
Big John is the most likable character in the movie. He is both cultured and patriotic. Howie's father is a womanizer who ignores the boy. Howie's best friend is a sociopathic male prostitute and another friend is having an incestuous relationship with his sister. Howie and his friends spent their leisure time robbing houses and discussing sex acts. Big John comes along and "helps" Howie when his life falls apart.
"L.I.E." is an infomercial for NAMBLA, and homosexuals and "sophisticated" film critics are applauding it. This film will undoubtedly give encouragement to homosexual child molesters who will readily identify with Big John Harrigan as he pursues his sexual prey. By mainstreaming pedophilia through films like "Lolita" and "L.I.E." Lot 47 Films owners are helping to contribute to our culture's rising levels of child abuse and molestation.
The director, screenwriters, actors, and the production company all share the guilt for producing a film that portrays pedophilia in a sympathetic light. This effort is also being aided and abetted by homosexual film groups and by mainstream homosexual magazines that obviously favor the sexual seduction of boys.
Step-by-step, homosexual activists are softening up public opinion on the issue of adult/child sex, which is euphemistically referred to in their publications as "intergenerational intimacy." We are unaware of any mainstream homosexual group condemning this film. Will PFLAG (Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) condemn this? Will GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network) teachers and parents condemn it?
When will the homosexual/pedophile assault against children stop? It will only stop when the public becomes outraged enough to put an end to homosexual recruitment programs in our public schools and when our legislators have the courage to say "No!" to the homosexual agenda. When will this happen? That is up to you.
Just imagine, who would be alive to go to the movies if the filthy minds and lives depicted in that movie were to come to fruition? What nation could withstand foreign enemies if the homefront was characterized as shown in that movie? Now, ask yourself, who would stand to gain, ultimately, if America were to copy such filth? What force actually wants this nation to conform to such a depiction?... Oh, to be sure, for a time Hollywood could reap billions spewing out more of the same deviancy, but ultimately, what would result? Destruction, utter, complete, annihilation, by enemies for whom America is a great Satan, a thorny obstacle to world domination and genocide against such as, moderate Moslems, Christians, the Jews and Israel! Yet hollyweird is populated with Jews exploiting the denegration of American morals because there's huge money to be made in the sensationalism of deviancy!
'For we are at war with powers and principalities, not flesh and blood.'
Be honest for a change.
You mean, as you type the most laughable lies in the history of Free Republic?
Be honest, yourself. You hate America and want to see her destoryed!
There are, of course, more heterosexuals. Or, did you forget?
What a bunch of perverted $%%^&*(*(()^$#$#@@@@!!!!!!!!!
It is too socially divergent to maintain its self if left alone.
The very nature of homosexuality brings about a decline in the population of its hosts.
(no direct offspring, behavioral induced diseases like AIDS)
It continues solely due to its one transmission vector which is pedophilia.
If you see an increase in the number of homosexuals in society know that it was entirely due to
increased pedophilia.
I'll let you get on the horn with Bill.
avg_freeper should back off and think a second before he posts petty little irrelevant screeds like that.
I need an undo button.
And therefore if you really want to put a major dent in pedophilia you should kill off the heteros.
People who say they want to stop pedophilia and then only attack a minor contributor to the problem really have quite another agenda in mind -- despite their ravings to the contrary.
I think the most mind-blowing part of this article is that they're UPSET by an NC 17 rating. What exactly did they expect, PG?
