Re : The Loss of Sexual Innocence...

I saw it, Although the individual acting I liked, I did not feel the overall picture held together. In brief:

The best moment I thought was when Adam and Eve get kicked out of paradise by the fascists storm troopers and their dogs, an appropriate representation. [but they missed the pointy hats].

I prefer to consider this movie as a test of the acting performance of the various actors in it, individually the performances were good, achieving what the director asked of them to do, for example, The Twins played by Saffron Burroughs, I thought to be great. However the movie itself.... I am not sure holds one's interest. A bit confusing by the "timeline of events" (i.e. Starts with Nic as a 5 year old boy, then Nic (Julian Sands), as a mature man with his son and wife, and from there it goes back to a younger Nic again. The lack of dialogue, at times, is not helpful either. Art film ? hmmm questionable

All, of course my opinion.

More by PM, since I do not want to re-fuel another idiot-war with the local religious police.

Must go now.
