Thank goodness this is fictional is all I can say. However, I did keep on watching as it didn't require too much concentration and you can pick up on the story a bit like a soap opera.

It may have qualified as a family film except for the continual bad language. It was a strange role for Benedict Cumberbatch. Perhaps he's not getting many offers. Why does he have to play a New Yorker? Did not enjoy.

The sex content is too overpowering bordering on soft porn. I thought it was a story of real love until the end when you find out how much the young man blames the teacher for spoiling his life rather than accepting fifty per cent of the blame himself. It ends up leaving you feeling that it was just lust after all, that our emotions have been conned. I never really understood why the teacher had such weakness. Why she succumbed so easily.
