This is disturbing. I hope people boycott this movie because there's no need for crap like this.

Dakota, 12, to star in 'disturbing paedophile film'

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1773

Child actress Dakota Fanning will appear in a controversial new movie featuring paedophile scenes.

War of the Worlds star Dakota, 12, has signed up to appear in Hounddog.

The screenplay calls for Fanning's character to be raped in one explicit scene and to appear naked or clad only in "underpants" in several other horrifying moments.

A source close to the film said: "The two taboos in Hollywood are child abuse and the killing of animals.

"In this movie, both things happen." Fanning's mother, Joy, and her Hollywood agent, Cindy Osbrink, see the movie, written and directed by Deborah Kampmeier, as a possible Oscar vehicle for the pint-size star.

But despite Fanning's status as a bankable actress - whose movies, including last year's War of the Worlds have earned more than half a billion dollars since 2001 - the alarming material seems to have scared off potential investors, according to the New York Daily News.

The film charts the life of a girl who is abused and finds solace in the music of Elvis Presley.

Fanning's carefully choreographed rape scene has already been filmed. But then the production - which also stars Robin Wright Penn, David Morse and Piper Laurie - was stopped because of a lack of money.

But emergency investors were found and the movie is set to be finished by the end of the week.

"It's not just the rape scene - the whole story is challenging Dakota as an actress," Fanning's agent, Osbrink, said.

"And I've never been so proud of her in my life. In every scene she gets better and better."

All sorts of movies? examples, please.

Movie from the 70's with Brooke Shields at 13 or so playing a child prostitute and naked would be a good example.

I disagree-plenty of films out there pushing the boundaries without using child rape to sell tickets.

Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver as well.

This isn't new, but it's no less distasteful.

I think people like Halfcan need to realize........there's a difference in nudity and porn they are not the same thing. He reminds me of the church guy who thinks everything is porn, the naked boob and the double anal porn are the same thing to some people apparently.

I am sure your are an expert on Porn, so I will not even bother to argue that point.

To me if it shows a kid and adult engaging in sex-or in this case sexual abuse and rape-it crosses the line into kiddie porn. Call me a prude-but I can do without disgusting shit like this.

Interesting, and perhaps disturbing question: is the worldwide release of simulated rape 'pornography?' Is the worldwide release of simulated rape of a pre-teen child 'pornography?'

How many that were 12?
Well, countless baby oil commercials show toddlers nude on national television. Of course, the nudity is not meant to tittilate, so it's not considered child porn. Baby in a tire... Dog pulls toddler's pants down at the beach... Pullup Diapers for children too old for regular diapers. Of course, these aren't sexual in nature...

But MANY movies have shown underage nudity that was sexual in nature, but not considered porn, because the sexuality expressed was not meant to tittilate. I already mentioned American Beauty, but those were 16 and 17 year olds. For a 12 year old, look no further than a movie with a 12 year old Brooke Shields called "Pretty Baby."

It took a bit of research, but the law says any that passes the "SLAPS" test is considered OK, when it comes to underage nudity. If the art is considered to have "Serious Literary, Artistic, Political, or Scientific value" then it's not considered "obscene." Of course, that's america. If you want a list of about 280 international films with underage nudity...

here you go:

Then you personally don't have to watch it.......it doesn't mean you get to make the decision for everyone else on if they want to watch it or not. I personally don't care if you think it's the worst thing on earth there are other people that will watch it. Just like church always trying to impose their bullshit on everyone else........

This post is laughable. It does not surprise me that you would jump on your soap box to defend Child rape-you defend every thug and steroid abuser in the NFL, so why not this too??

When you have to expose your young children to the subject of rape....it's called a deteriorating society.
