Jeune et Jolie/ Young and Beautiful

01:57:00

Doubtlessly teenagers nowadays grow up faster than they used to. The level of violence and lack of innocence can be seen everywhere we cast our eyes. Not so long ago a teacher in Barcelona was killed by a thirteen-year-old student with a crossbow. Are there still any values held by the young ones, or are they just deprived of the beginning by the internet, porn, a desire for material possessions? Who is to blame? Teachers? Parents? Society? Media? Is it okay for a teenager to sell one's body or, taking into account all the circumstances, are we the ones to judge, being sinless ourselves? A film visually beautiful but dark on the inside. Can you really stop once you start sinning?

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
