Actually I am really surprised by this, Europeans being much looser in the moral standards department. Apparently there are levels to which even they do not stoop to.
This is revolting. I have a nine year-old son and it really hits home for me.
I feel sorry for this boy--his innocence was stolen by his star-struck, greedy parents.
Yeah, John. I agree with Ms. Reisman. I seriously do. Could ya'll, however, post a picture of Nicole in the bathing scene (without the boy) so we could evaluate that?
So you enjoy looking at photos of naked pedophiles? You need to seek professional help.
Please, keep it civil, people.
I meant it tongue-in-cheek, but your point is well taken. For the record, I do not enjoy looking at pedophiles, and I do not need to seek professional help.
The article is not about Planned Parenthood, Girl Scouts, etc. The article focuses on a movie about a ten year old boy and a pedophile. Even a passive defense of Nicole Kidman on this thread is dangerous and stupid. I'm sure you could find plenty of Nicole Kidman supporters on DU.
Glad to hear it.
This thread concens the guild of the actress and I was putting it in perspective. Nicole is an actress. The NEA and Planned Parenthood are our real enemies. Attacking Nicole is jousting at a windmill. Getting the word out about the dangers of the National Education Association and its stated positions is real activism. The NEA is powerfull, perverted, and influences the lives of all public school children. But you would rather attack the little red-haired girl?
Kidman is no 'little red-haired girl'. She's a grown woman who has been married and has adopted several children. As an adult female, she is now promoting a movie where, according to reviewers, she french kisses and bathes with a ten year old boy. Your attempt to minimize her actions in this movie by dragging in whole groups of perverts is unproductive and pointless.
Over the last decade we have had a serial debunking of the work of Kinsey, Freud, Boas, Margaret Meade and Ruth Benedict. We have found a number of "noted" historians charged with plagiarism. Yet, all have been forgiven and remain firmly crushed to the bosom of American academe and its intellectual elitists. Hollywood, which is perhaps the most ahistorical element of them all, is the last to get the word, and will extoll Kinsey, just as they have Castro, Che, Malcolm X, and other excrementum.
"So you enjoy looking at photos of naked pedophiles? You need to seek professional help."
You missed his point, O.C. You know, it IS possible to strongly disagree with the things Nicole does in this movie (and they are wrong; a ten-year old is simply not emotionally or physically capable of handling a scene like this without suffering damage to his psyche) AND still think that (physically) Nicole is an earthshakingly sexy woman.
I recommend the final 15 minutes of Cold Mountain as proof of the latter point.
(Wait a minute...aren't you the leader of the anti-South Park farts here on FR? Nevermind, the very idea of sex probably sends you to the confession box.)
This highly dramatic statement, coupled with a line from your homepage where you describe yourself as someone with "a florid speech" leads me to believe that you are a female. If not, your family has my deepest sympathy.
The ten year old is taller.
"Oh these up tight, repressed Europeans!
What is the fuss it all about?
Kidman insists she doesn't know!"
What is this movie, the Cruise/Kidman Love story. At least they got Cruises persona accurate using the little boy. I am surprised that Kidman didn't get the thinly veiled pedophilia slant on this movie. She was doing so well. Oh well, good thing she already got her Oscar. Another one bites the glitter dust. Like I said before, all the theater seats will be packed with pedo-pervs. Sane people have NO DESIRE to witness such revulsion and it has nothing to do with being "up tight". Kidman is now speaking liberal circle jerk.
From O.C.: "This highly dramatic statement, coupled with a line from your homepage where you describe yourself as someone with "a florid speech" leads me to believe that you are a female. If not, your family has my deepest sympathy."
"That's why I say/ Hey man, nice shot"
You told an actual JOKE, O.C. I'm so proud of you.
If "earthshakingly sexy" is too "florid" (read, wordy) for you, will "that b***h is fine" work?
Now, if you don't find Nicole at all sexy--which probably puts you in a very small minority amongst straight American men--just who (or what type of woman) DO you find sexy?
Please, No gay copouts like "My wife, etc..."; and my question is only relevant assuming the unlikely possibility that you can still get it up.
She should be in prison along with everyone involved in this, including the child's parents.
