The controversy was further fueled by conservative and religious blogs who were concerned for Fanning because the screenplay called for her to appear in a rape scene

I am not comfortable with this movie. I will not see it.
I thought it had been dumped as a movie not worth investing in.
But I guess someone was desperate to loose money.

It’s just a bit of fiction on film. It’s all Hollywood and there was NO rape. It is supposed to be her best dramatic work. If you are upset with traumatic dramatic movies go see a film about penguins dancing.

Saw it.(penguins dancing)

I like/love most of Dakota Fanning's films. I am not sure I want to see this one.
Child rape is a rough subject. Graphic depiction of it is probably not something I want to see.

It happens, Dakota Fanning only lay on the ground acting as if someone was on top of her hurting her, but in the film, it will probably place him on her.

I can watch violence against adults without blinking but harm to kids is one thing I hate all times.
While probably not illegal, I will say immoral and will not pay to see this dog.

I should have added along with the movie ‘The secret Life of Bees’ also with Dokota Fanning.

Hounddog is out and is at Netfiix. Saw it and it was OK. The rape scenario was nothing at all, it’s a big to-do about nothing and the story line was so common.

More than ok. The scene is not a major scene as I was thinking how can a young girl go with this role but you have to see it. I loved the film.

*sigh* once again people go off gossip rather than any reputable source... I commend those who saw it to discover the falsities of others' preconceived notions.

Houndog-good film,this actress is very believable. I wish Dakota Fanning a great career as she never disappoints me. I was confused with the ending but I got it.Eventually.
