24As with Juno, I was unimpressed with this 2007 black comedy from director Alan Ball. The freedom of choice this film endorses is cheapened by a dull heroine and a very simplistic portrayal of teenage life. I have to ask: why does this film concentrate so directly on sex, at the expense of the other themes? The film is confronting, well-acted and oppressive, sure, but I also found it singleminded. Moreover, scenes of abuse should NEVER be presented as erotic.
(Note: aside from my YouTube avatar, I do not own any of the media in this video.)
Cheers! .
