Michael (2011 Film)

Posted by MAPTherapy on 2012-June-15 11:20:52 EDT, Friday

Has anyone seen the film "Michael"? I just watched it and I'm not quite sure how I feel about it. If anyone has seen it I would love to discuss it.

It doesn't involve GL, but there are relevant themes and situations in the movie that relate to this board. It's about a man who keeps a 10-year-old boy in his basement. It is a very strange depiction of what could be construed in a number of ways, including pedophilia/minor-attraction/boy love/sexual abuse/rape/kidnapping/etc.
