If anyone is there...RESPOND!


Please understand that I am not whining about child sexual themes like many others on this board, I just have parents that are VERY overprotective about R-rated movies. (No, I'm not a whiny kid either, I'm 15. Like I said, VERY overprotective!) I just wanted to know exactly what happens in this "barn scene". I have a basic idea, but the two don't actually...you know...do it, do they?

Hi, just watched the movie. Such a wonderful piece of acting by Haley Joel Osment and Liam Hess.
To answer you question, no they don't. But there several other... er.. disturbing scenes that in my personal opinion might not suitable for children.

I just saw this, so I can respond.

Nothing sexual happens between the children in the barn.

At one point, a girl is raped by a notorious bully ... we don't see the actual act, but it's clear what has happened.

We see the body of a young father who had been murdered hours before.

And we see several innocent people, Jews and Christians, shot to death.

Finally, we hear, two or three times, a woman in the throes of sexual passion ... this is being listened to from elsewhere in the house by little boys, one of whom realizes what is going on and one who does not.

What about this nudity thing? I also have very overprotective parents.(Although I can usually sell my mother if it's a movie about WWII.) How bout is the nudity in this?
