This is a movie about a grown ass man having a sexual relationship with a boy.
A teenage boy!
And before you say 'in Italy the age of consent is lower', I see this clearly as a gross pedophillic attempt by the gay community to celebrate man/boy relations.
They have revealed the next step in their program: to lower the age of consent, or to do away with it all together, so that gays can go after the toned bodies of teens.
Thoughts?
Believe me, in Europe people are much cooler about that, especially in the time it is set. This changed nowadays thanks to US "values" sink in more and more into European culture.
As an example of some other European movies with such a topic:
- Malèna
- The Reader
- Adoration/Adore
All about underage boys falling in love with a much older woman. So you want to tell me that "correct sex" relationships were already legitimized and now "Hollyweird" wants to establish it also for gay relationships? Or what is your narrative?
Anyway: The parents clearly liked Oliver and thus trusted him when they realized both are in love. As he is in the movie end 20s, if they wouldnt trust him, it would also cause issues back then. So they just let them enjoy life.
