You are in no way upsetting me in anyway but I do want you to know we all have to get through this world, you can choose to be curious and attempt to learn from the world around you or you can limit your vision and never venture passed the familiar. It looks like you made your decision on that front and it is your…

"you can't rape a whore" man you are really aiming to be a giant piece of shit. Congratulations on achieving your goal, pat yourself on the back for it you useless waste of resources.

As a matter of fact the filming of a criminal act is in fact too transgressive for most people. This is not hypocrisy in anyway.

Agreed, he really is one of those self mythologizers. He IS a surrealist to the core of his being in that I don't really think he makes a distinction between fact and fiction in the way that most people do (this is not to excuse any of his possible actions). I do remember a more recent interview with him where he…

I took his(?) comment to be that he is just sickened by the world and is going to avoid things that may start falling into the gray area of possible complicity of reinforcing social acceptance towards violence and rape culture…..I may have read it wrong according to everyone else here though

There is a scene where Robin Williams character is holding a family hostage and forcing them to do degrading things while he photographs it.

This may tie into David Foster Wallace's essay on irony in literature and popular culture becoming a trap with which we haven't figured out how to escape yet.

As one likely to be culled, I would prefer not, but hey, I get it.

I would love to get a comment from the actress for the reasons you just stated but….sigh, it would probably just confirm the horribleness of the situation.

So because she was young enough to not understand the seriousness of the drugs she ingested and because she was already being manipulated by one older man, it is okay for another older man to manipulate and rape her?

You hit the nail on the head. Thank you very much for this. We desperately need to learn civics and civility in this country. It is quite literally becoming life and death at this point.

Well, from what I understand we have never had a true Matriarchal society. How about instead of Gendercide, we let women be in charge for a couple of hundred years and then after that maybe we can have parity?

God that sucks. I have all of his movies on dvd and listening to him talk about how he slept with all of the women from The Holy Mountain was setting off alarm bells for me that i tried to ignore, so I don't hold out much hope for this situation.

I don't know, ask Hoot Cottonmouth.

Any possibility that this is some made up fantastical story he made up about the filming of that scene in some really misguided sense of machismo?

I didn't know that about Diane Kruger. Man people need to get off the whole "authentic as possible thing" especially when it comes to violating other human beings.

Aawww maaaaan. Don't do this to me man. I love his films. God Damn it.

There goes any chance of me ever watching this movie.

I love the part in Now Wait For Last Year how the rich boss is constructing a replica of his Childhood in D.C. on Mars, weirdly appropriate for our nostalgia driven times.

Can someone please explain this to me. I was flipping through movie channels yesterday. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and the Point Break remake were on. Blue and Silver/white for every shot in Harry Potter, Blue and Green lit on everyone's faces in the Point Break remake. I then flip to the original…
