I can't imagine this series appeals much to the type of person who believes artists should be constrained in their subject matter to what best represents their worldview. Yes there is and always has been violence toward women in the world, but does it have to be depicted in film? Goya's a great painter and all but why…

Shouldn't you reserve judgement on what needs to happen in the story until you've seen the whole story? And you've now book spoiled twice in this non-readers thread.
