This is just going round and round. I called out hypocrisy. That doesn’t mean that I liked the film. I said that the film had a message that people aren’t getting. Again, doesn’t mean I like the film. People like YOU are taking it personal, jumping in, paraphrasing, and distorting. That’s a really interesting reaction to someone saying that a film has a message. Chill out.
Bluecannon : I DON’T care if you like the film or not. And I never said I liked it. What I said is that there’s a message in the film, and the faux uproar is overshadowing it. Why do I call it faux? You prove it when you said that an 11 year old exposes her breast. That’s not in the film. A US senator claimed it was, and you bought into it. And then, you’re spreading the misinformation along. It’s fake, because even those who obviously haven’t seen the film are getting all offended. It’s ridiculous.
Then on the other side of the spectrum, you’ve got ShiftyPickle paraphrasing.
I said preteens are discovering their bodies. He / she interprets that as meaning they’re exploring their sexuality. See what I mean? Distortion again.
The uproar about this film smacks of hypocrisy. No uproar when we see:
And NOW you want to show your outrage? Ummmm, okay. It seems people don’t complain seeing the end result of a dance routine featuring kids acting more adult than their ages (like I said, you see this stuff on television weekly in dance competition shows), but let’s bring out the pitchforks and clutch our pearls if a film shows the actual rehearsal process of the routine because…well…THAT just crosses the line (eye-roll).
Guess what? There’s an actual message in this film - maybe you’d pick up on that instead of focusing on the dance moves and its perceived titillation.
And FYI, in real life, 11 year old preteens are discovering their bodies. It’s called puberty. You can be shocked that a film DARE address the issue and dangers of preteens on social media - or you can accept the facts of life, that this IS the fact of life. But the faux puritanical outrage? Give me a break…
“And NOW you want to show your outrage?”
Are you fucking kidding me? It’s like saying “Oh people die everyday why can’t I just murder someone?”
Just because those DEPLORABLE things you listed exist, it DOES NOT justify the existence of this movie. If your argument for this movie is that “it makes people disturbed”, “it sends a message”, pretty sure NORMAL people can feel just as disturbed when they get told a description of whatever message this film is trying to portray, especially if it involves sexualizing children, rather than actually witnessing it right before their eyes.
“11 year old preteens are discovering their bodies”
GREAT! Why don’t we make a softcore CP movie about it then! Rather than maybe, oh idk, a documentary?
