Obviously, the "rape is bad" message could be gotten across by a character just saying "rape is bad." Actually, we don't even have to make a movie, we can just print a bunch of leaflets that say "rape is bad" and pass them around...
Just going by alluding to something in a film can be just a powerful. For instance with the same isue "Happiness" did it well.

I have kind of waiverd a bit in this thread but if done right to depict how bad the crime is in this scene by being very graphic could have meaning. Still cant really see the need for it and I am very open with films showing whatever they want to prove a point.
