As best as I can ascertain, from the trailer for this film, and from the comments about it, the idea of the film maker is the empowerment young girls. Empowering them, though, in a base and perverted way; namely, using their sexuality to attain elevated position in the social order.

For example, the scene which Jericho Green refers to (his video is posted on page 4 of this thread) regarding the girls being watched and then approached by older boys- 14 years of age versus the 11 years of the girls. As we all know, at that age, that three year span represents a magnitude of order, especially for females. Dance around in skimpy outfits, writhe around like horny prostitutes and you can have boys (or men) who would otherwise regard you as children.

At the core of this attempt for elevated social position and for attaining a degree of dominance over the male of the species, is a fear of inadequacy, and a feeling of impotence on the part of- not the eleven year old girls- but of the film maker, the writer(s) and the producer of this softcore child pornography. This seems quite clear to me, and it fits perfectly into the overwhelming campaign over the past decade of the entertainment industry and the corporate media to drive down our throats the message that females are not the equal to males, but are actually superioir to males, and that it is patently unfair that females have not been recognized for this superiority- a superiority which those hammering this message home really don't believe. They really don't believe it, but they have momentum via the sympathy towards women these days, and from the idea that males are inherently evil trash.
That's the reason they are trying to turn these young girls into fledgling gold diggers. Those responsible for this film are telegraphing a message to all females, not just juveniles, and that message is that you can and should use your sexual attractiveness to attain power, position, money and security.

Bottom line- it's a power grab of sorts, from people who want to convince us of something they themselves don't believe is true, but want to be true, and since everyone is bowing to this nonsense and fearful of pushing back against it, now is their time to advance their perverted cause.

"Best" is in the eye of the beholder. You're going to have to do your homework.

But, as member redstone noted, a bit up-thread, they're all going there in one way or another.

Of course: They've put all the local DVD/BD rental place out-of-business (the last one in our neighborhood closed about six months ago), so it's either buy your movies, take them out at your local library, or do without.

Local library is closed. I’ll do without, then. I’d rather not have such a service than to finance companies with very bad moral standards.

Very much along the lines of BLM and the social engineers' agenda with white male inferiority at its base. A couple things about "Cuties" that caught my eye, no attribution from me, one of those NYC publications lauding this film because it strikes at the core of the patriarchy. The filmmakers are pulling the usual sleight of hand, saying this film is a condemnation of child sex exploitation. Well, of course... Roll Eyes Mad

Just a personal note.

My oldest daughter was upset at my choice. She likes several shows and felt that if we watch them and not the bad stuff then Netflix will learn what we like.

That works for a questionable Disney choice, I do not buy tickets, do not buy the DVD/Bluray whatever. Disney doesn't make money, Disney goes back to what does make them money.

This is a subscription. And while they do monitor closely who watches what, and from what demographic. There is too large a transactional distance between me and Netflix. The ONLY choice I felt I had was to cancel and tell them why I canceled.
This is where I pulled the "Dad w/ Daughters" card.
I chose not to post the video of the girl taking a pic of her parts and sending it to someone. How is that even legal? My daughter seems to understand and even supports me, but she rages against the machine that led Netflix to greenlight this lunacy.

Yesterday they were trading down nearly $20. I hope Netflix chokes on it.

Laura Ingraham did a good piece on this trash last night. She also said that in California there's bill or a movement to remove the stigma from pedophelia. I can't remember what she called it but I guess there's some push to consider it normal for some folks.

After watching tributes for 9/11 yesterday the shit going on in this country today just has me shaking my head and wondering what happened?

Well, I can't see this going anywere, but I love that it's being looked at:

Ted Cruz calls for DOJ investigation into 'Cuties' filmmakers and Netflix
quote:
“Although the First Amendment provides vigorous protection for artistic expression," Cruz wrote, "it does not allow individuals or for-profit corporations to produce or distribute child pornography."

There seems to be a slight disparity between the media apparatchiks and actual human beings.

We've seen this before, with the Dave Chapelle NetFlix comedy special, except in that instance, the media shills hated it and the human beings loved it.

A movie for pedophiles made by pedophiles. Not surprising coming from a democrat mega-donor.

From the Babylon Bee:

Responding To Backlash, Netflix Clarifies Its Content Is 'Mostly Pedophilia-Free'

quote:
"We assure you, over 93% of the Netflix library is not pedophilia in any way," a spokesperson said. "Trust us -- we just did a thorough review of every movie and show in our catalog, and that's a pretty good percentage. You can rest easy that over nine out of every ten programs you watch on our program don't have any pedophilic content."
