If anything it was very educational
The documentary about child abuse in Hollywood. It was laid out mostly like a conversation featuring former child actors, their parents and a few professionals on the subject telling their stories about how kids are targeted by pedophiles in the business, some of which were never convicted and still work in the industry todayIt’s one of those subjects that should not be swept under the rug but exposed like a nerve for the world to see so things can be done about it.
The movie is a little bit one sided however, as it focuses on only little boys who’d gone through sexual abuse as actors, and it neglects children as a whole. The movie talks about how pedophiles don’t gender discriminate between boy and girls than apologizes for only using male subjects.
But I noticed that the movie actually focus on one target, mainly a case that happen in the late 90s and everyone connected to that case including Bryan singer director of X-Men was pointed out ( I had previous knowledge of the case as a boy tried to sue singer some time ago for sexual misconduct)
So the documentary does get a conversation going which is great but as a documentary I did not find it well rounded enough I must admit.
I gave it 10 stars for content and advocacy
I gave it 10 stars for content and advocacy but in truth would have liked to see something bolder- something that demanded more of the industry and society and something that placed a greater emphasis on complicity and who specifically is at fault and why. I didn’t feel that it did a very good job at really calling any one person or organization out even though people and organizations were listed. It felt as though we as the audience were given the evidence of wrong doing but left to decide who and what was at fault. The documentary needed to draw hard, unwavering lines and really drive the fault of certain people and organizations home.
