Talk:Pretty Persuasion

message: Pretty Persuasion is not a teen film according to wikipedia's definition of such, "This is a list of "teen films," movies centering around the lives of teenagers, with teens as the target audience."  This film adresses bestiality, anal sex, group sex, drug use, and racism, earning it a well deserved "R" title.  While it does center around the lives of teenagers, its target audience is much more adult oriented then "teen films" implies.
:I agree, and have removed the "teen" from the discription.  It is a very hard core satire.  Most teens  do not get the very strong David Mamet theme that runs through.  Even the diaglogue is a satire of Mamet.68.88.13.169 21:19, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

message: After watching this film, i ask myself: Is this what is often called post-modern? The interplay of truth-possibilities, the twisting of the story, the artificiality of life? -- ExpImptalkcon 01:47, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Agreed, black comedy and satire probably need reliable sources. It is obviously social commentary with some dark humour and exaggerates various characters. We gotta go fetch dem critics views. Alastair Haines (talk) 06:18, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
