What is of interest is how universal is this experience. Fascinating to see the reactions of the parents of both the victim and he boyfriend. The film implies that when raped she was a virgin. A pretty and sensual young woman looking to learn about life meets a very unpleasant experience. The fact that we do not see the rape makes it all the more powerful. Bring back censorship, it made things much more artistic and forced us to use our imaginations.
I think the narration was used because there were no subtitles. Today what would be remedied.
Acting is excellent and Kirk's failed attempt to help the victim is very thought provoking.
Weak ending hurts the film's power. But perhaps this better emphasizes the title.
Today's Law and Order episodes are far more graphic.
