The first time I watched this movie, I was literally screaming in my head as I watched the rape scene which I can never erase from my mind no matter how long it has been. The violation is unbelievable and yet our world has only become worse! I can honestly understand why the woman whose life this movie is based upon had to leave the state and settle elsewhere. If she was still alive, she would have to live with the knowledge that her rapists are walking the streets in freedom after serving a very short sentence.
I am at a loss as to whether I should give it a high rating for how horrible it was to see such a violation, or a low rating for the rage and disgust it festered and still does within me.
Jodie Foster was impressive and so very brave to take on such a role and I applaud her ability to reveal a story for which I give her full marks. Kelly McGillis took on a roll that made me dislike her after that. How can we women not stand by each other especially for something like this! I am not ashamed to say that I would have twisted the law every which way I could to put those Men & Every Person in the bar under the jail, and put that bar out of business period!!!!!!!!
Ok Movie and Jodie Foster; Phenomenal!
The Rest of the actors; C
