Pornografia infantil disfarçada de "arte".

Because the filmmakers cook up an equal number of touching sequences to match their disturbing ones, their portrait of disturbed America comes through clearly and effectively.

The film is fascinating, but sort of like watching a road accident.

Thoroughly vile!...It galls me to think that other nations might believe this is what American youth is really like
