If she's naked{except for panties} in some scenes, that is grounds for calling it child inappropriate content. Do they actually think that this is going to help, to make the rape scenes as explicit as they say they do, and more to the pojnt to have a pre-pubescent girl running around w/out her clothes on set beeing filmed pretty much in the nude? that is just gonna make Dakota's nudity masturbatory material for the pedophiles whom happen to see this movie.
I'm not opposed to expressing the horrors of such things on film. But like the author of this thread said, use a freakin body double, or something.
I may see this movie out of curiosity, just to see if it IS as explicit as they make it sound, or if the charges of such are simply puritanical hype. Dakota is indeed a wonderful actress, and I agree that she is highly intelligent and mature at her age{or "seems" to be}, and the fact is that she si close to the age of phsyical adulthood{as opposed to our stupid, unnatural/anti-natural, arbitrary laws of 18/21,etc}, but age 12 is still a little bit questionable to have a girl running around nude, beeing graphically pretend raped for our entertainment...er...um... education{as if we really need to se it to knwo what it would be liked}, if the intent is to show pedophiles the horror they put their victims through, don't they think the pedophiles allready know this-given that they do it themselves? won't this just give them masturbatory material. Dakota is a pretty young girl, and that won't bode well for keeping this from beeing a big favorite for pedophiles to watch.
Using simple relativistic, yet utilitarian ethics; what is the practical ethical value of filming this this way using a real,live, pre-teen girl.
I've seen plenty of movies on similar subjects, where young girls and boys were stars in the movie, and the very "implication" of what was going to happen or BEGINNING to happen and then camera panning away, fading to black, sounds of rape happening w/out showing, use of idget adult body doubles and whatnot for for graphic scences that may include nudity or partial nudity, were always used. This I'm fine with for the arts sake. but what they imply is done in this movie sems to cross a line a little too much.
I could be wrong, I suppose we'll see.
I'm "iffy' on this one.
I personally have little issue with it. However, I just wonder if perhaps filing such things in such gaphic details using a real live young girl whom is nude{and pre-pubescent/ ie:having the beginnings of breasts and womanly form,etc}; then there is the fact that it is a scientific fact that between ages 12-14, human go through as many hormonal,body,psychollogical changes and turmoil as in the first two years of life, how will this fact play out for Dakota as she enters that stage having played in such a graphic{sexually} movie as she entered into that stage?
I worry about the psychological affects. I mean Drew Barryore and other child actors in the sketchy hollywood biz were royally messd up psychologically by the combination of what it is like to first of all even be in so many movies during their childhood in a biz such as the hollywood movie biz and all the stresses that such things and such fame can cause, second of all in movies that had fairly graphic things or ideas to them or in them that they particpated in on a daily basis,thirdly-any other factors.
Drew was incredibly intelligent and mature too, as were most child actors, and look at the crap they went throughm the addictions, and other things. I worry about other child actors; particualryl when they ahve a seemingly veyr intelligent and mature demeanor, and when most of their movies have beeen on very dark subjects and things such as horror and whatnot{or where they play troubled,spolied children,etc}. Most of Dakotas movies have been dark, horror,etc. How will this fact bode for her?
I dn't know. But I wonder and have some concern.
Not that I am against children and pre-pubescent kids beeing in horror movies or movies with dark subject matter,etc, but when most or all of the flicks they are are of that nature, that troubles me.
Hmmm???
Anyways, I will wacth this movie ou tof curiosity. Perhaps the allegations of explicitnes and nudity,etc, are overplayed and hyped up to be more graphic than they really are.

yeah, 12 year olds having consented sex with other people in their age range. Not the same thing as graphic rape scenes featuring a twelve year old naked girl and adults dooing the raping.
