What are you talking about? He states to the gentleman having sex with her that she is 16 therefor illegal. It's clearly pointed out. You're probably an extra in this movie eh.

First off 16 IS the legal age in Scotland. Bruce asks for her age and she lies saying 16. He then looks at her id which shows her to be younger than 16 and therefore underage. He then makes his findings known to his partner.

Of course this observational mistake you made doesn't change the way you feel about the situation presented in the movie. Everyone is welcome to their opinion.

I guess you only like movies which contain characters that you want to like rather than interesting ones. I think you don't understand thought provoking film.

It's still rape because she is only consenting under duress, but she is not a minor by UK standards.

Don't make the assumption that American rules and laws are worldwide rules and laws and you will get a lot more respect when conversing with non-Americans.

Why would she lie about being 16 if she was not a minor? Of course she's a minor, dingleberry.

She lied about being 16, because 16 is legal, and was trying to keep out of trouble.

She was actually younger than 16, so yes, Bruce statutory raped her.

If she had been 16, it would have been legal, albeit, creepy.
(Coercion is a grey point here, as he didn't threaten her with any legal action, just that he'd tell her dad)

Because she's not actually 16.

Yep, you're dead right. The scene is there to portray him as a really nasty bloke...and it does that very well. Something like that was an essential early part of the story.
