Mindfuck movie and the blackening of my name

Aaaaah yes, mindfuck movies. I love them. Movies that leave a person reeling, with too much to think about and too little answers. And there are quite a few of them, to be sure. I can mention Yeux d'Enfants, or The Dreamers, but even Lord of War or Party Monster can induce the general feeling of disorientation and the inclination towards cogitation.

And now, I can safely add Hard Candy to my lists.
And yes, righteously so. Now I am not saying that it is a technically great movie, and it might, will, not be everybody's cup of tea.

But the subject matter is great. It does remind me of Death and the Maiden, and righteously so, but sometimes there is a message that cannot be told too often, or too rigorously. Sometimes lessons do need to be learned by everybody.

This is a movie about pedosexuality, the sexual attraction to children. Now, in basics, I have nothing against those who are attracted to children. I see sexual preference in any way as no different or inherently better than others. Such is my thing in life. Hetero, Homo, Lesbian, the wish to be rogered by horses or ducks, all the same to me. I can and will not judge or punish anyone for his preference.
That being said, and I hope people are still reading this and see me explain my point, I am only talking about PREFERENCE. I can and will judge, and if necessary punish you for the ACTIONS you take to alleviate your yearnings.

Example: If one fancies sex with women, one can have sex with emotionally and physically available women, or one can shake hands with the bishop to any number of websites, or internal fantasies. No harm done either way.
Example2: Should one fancy sex with horses, one can buy a house next to a stable and spend one's days polishing the one eyed gopher to their hearts content and the sounds of whinnying and hooving. No worries. TOUCH a horse in a way you are not ONE FREAKING HUNDRED percent sure the horse wants to be touched and you should be punished.

Same applies to children. One cannot help a preference, no harm. You can move next to a school and listen to them play all day, no worries. You could even make pictures of children, perhaps, and "utilize" these for your pleasure, although I find this questionable, but if there is no way whatsoever that the child should ever know about this, fair enough.
But touch a child, watch child-porn (where a child has been touched) or do anything to cause harm to a child, and death should come on swiftest wings, albeit after extensive torture.

And don't get me wrong, I am not talking about a sixteen year old who knows damn well what he is doing but is by law deemed out of your reach. Arbitrary choices concerning ages of consent interest me not.
I am talking about those that are physically and emotionally too young or weak (when compared to yourself) to resist, put up a fight, or verbally or otherwise counter your desires.
If my point is unclear, I am willing to expand, this is a subject I would hate to be misinterpreted on. Please message me if you think I am too obtuse or unclear.

But, back to the movie, the movie is about a 32 year old man and a 14 year old girl who meet after a few weeks of chatting online. From the start it is clear that these two have plans on each other, and that He is enough of a predator to make use of the fact that She clearly wants to look older and braver than she really is.
He gets Her home, and the fun starts. And with fun, I mean mindfucking.

I am not going to go into details here, not because it will spoil the movie, the movie itself advertises quite clearly what is going to happen and multiple reviews have "given away" a few of it's surprises, so me spoiling it a bit won't hurt that much. It's just that details are inconsequential to the main part of the feeling this movie will hit you with.

The acting, simply put, is phenomenal. The girl especially handles the numerous close ups in a way that had chills run down my spine. Cinematography is very important here, the location and light have been used to it's best advantage, and very beautifully so.

The movie is uncomfortable, much of it is filmed in extreme close-up, and it is intimate and private in a way not many movies dare to be. I think there were only five "real" parts in the entire movie, and I am counting the waiter, so that says something. And yet it works. The closeness and intimacy make the situations more personal, one feels like one is looking in on something that one should not be seeing. It makes it all more real, acceptable.

Which is good, in a bad way.

See this movie, seriously, it is better, much, much better, than all the no-brained crap that is filling the theatres at this point in time, and it WILL give you something to talk about.

On another, more personal note, one can finally google my name and come up with results! Seriously. I'll save you the trouble, I'll give you the link. www.tele2nee.nl .
It's in Dutch, and I won't go into context, but suffice it to say I am pictured as a customer service employee that has kicked, raped and dismembered a Mormon tabernacle choir during a interview with a customer.
Great stuff, really. See it to believe it. I did post a comment, I hope he leaves it up there, otherwise I will repost here, but it will be in Dutch.

I don't actually think I have much native English readers, but it is nice to dream, is it not?

Grtz,
Kevin.
