Mysterious Skin

I like the story line that I cannot recommend it and it makes worst that Brian and Neil got advantage at the age of 8 by thinking it was just a game and fun but damn... Neil become hypo sexual and maybe more than that... I felt really bad

A strong, admirable, sometimes difficult to watch foray into the indelible mark made by a child molester; whether he picks on boys or girls is not the point--when children are misused for adult gratification, the results are lasting, forever marking a person's ability to relate positively to another. Lest this sound clinical, the film is not--it is often complex, never less than sincere, my only complaint being that perhaps too much emphasis is put on sexual escapades tilting the film towards sensational instead of revealing. The performances by the young actors are unusually stark, moving, and sincere: no cheap pet tricks here.
