Has anyone seen this film?

It's about a pedophile and his intended victim, a 14 year old girl and stars Ellen Page (Juno, X-Men) and Patrick Wilson (Watchmen).

What did you think of it?

One of my favorites.

It's just so manipulating.

I enjoyed it too, Lawrence.

Pedro, it's a bit of a weird film but worth seeing.

My boyfriend showed it to me for the catharsis factor and it was scary how much of it I could relate to...

Same here.

I'm a 35 year old pedophile who was falsely castrated by a 14 year old girl, and I ended up hanging myself. But I survived. :cool:

I love you, Carole. :)

Lol, we all know that you aren't a 30-something year old pedo...or do we? :P

I can relate to the tactics he uses in the film to get her to trust him and a number of other dynamics in their relationship. That's why it has a cathartic element for me.

That's scary. But you're a strong ol' gal. ;)

Only Marcie knows my true motives.

On second hand. Why is my Carole up so late?

Less of the "old" if you please :P

We need Marcie to come and clear this particular dilemma then!

Oh, I wasn't sleepy so I came online and just haven't got round to tucking down. I'm trying not to think about the house hunting that the morning will bring lol

I think it's brilliant acting on both Ellen and Patrick's parts. Honestly, brilliant.

Who the hell are you?
I am every little girl you ever watched, touched, hurt, screwed, killed.

Best scene is when she pretends to rip off his nuts, or when he hangs himself and she's just like JK and runs off.
