Being Weird Isn't Enough

Hard Candy

This film looks like it is going to be pretty cool and if you heard over to Yahoo movies you can watch the first 8 1/2 minutes of the film. Here is the link to the films trailer. For those who don't know what it's is the story is about a pedophile who invites a 14 year old girl into his house after meeting online only to lead a disturbing game of cat and mouse with shocking consequences and shocking twists. The film was released in select cities last week and is getting a wider release this week. I hope it comes here, b/c I'd really like to see something good before I leave. I came back from American Dreamz tonight and was thinking it was going to be a really awesome film but once again I was let down.

I think the other reason I'd like to see it is I think Ellen Page is a super hottie and I can say that even if she's playing a 14 year old b/c she is really 19. I love her short hair in the film. She will also be playing Shawdowcat in X3.

Since the film hits a real touchy subject Lions Gate films started a wear red campaign. Wear red is a movement for online empowerment and awareness, inspired by the film and its protagonist’s red hoody. We are to wear a red hoody to stand up for online safety and against internet violence. I like that the studio is being responsible and promoting safety as opposed to just pulling the plug on the film and ignoring the issue.

    I agree it will be messed up and creepy. Considering it involves a pedophile picking up a small girl online, it even felt weird saying that I wanted to see it. Then again by watching the trailer it looks like theres more to the girl than we know. The guy looks like he will end up getting it in the end. :)
