26. "It's a movie about the dangers of sexualizing children." In response to In response to 0 Fri Sep-11-20 11:55 AM by Frank Longo
Every critic I know who saw it said it's a terrific film that explicitly criticizes the sexualization of children. It's designed to make people feel uncomfortable, because this is a real thing in the lives of young girls, and people should be confronted with this reality.
Netflix just fucked up with its marketing and now it's all over QAnon's radar, so it's getting trolled into oblivion, which really sucks, considering none of those people saw the film except for maybe a couple of scenes completely devoid of context. Anyone who thinks it's mere pedo bait just... hasn't seen the movie.
Also ironic that the vast majority of people trolling it are supporters of a president who's actually been charged with raping a 13-year-old girl. And, as you said, those people are so freely showing clips of the movie they insist is pro-pedophilia. But you can't reason with any of those people.
