Title: Great Character Movie
Review: I wasn't certain how I would feel about this movie or even if I COULD feel anything about it other than hatred. It's about a child molester; how could that be a good thing?But, I have to say that it was absolutely terrific.I think most pedophiles are NOT sorry. They don't care about or empathize with their victims at all. Many are actual or borderline sociopaths. But, Kevin Bacon portrays the minority. A pedophile who actually wants to change.During one scene where he is talking to a little girl in the woods, I actually found myself holding my breath and then breathing out "Don't do it. Don't do it."Yes, this movie had me talking out loud to the main character.I guess my only real fault with the film was Bacon's new 'girlfriend'. As much as I felt for the character, there is no way in real life that I would knowingly consort with a pedophile.Overall:An excellent film with an astounding performance by Bacon.
