- Citazioni
Jasira Maroun: [about girlie magazine] Women look at these pictures?
Melina Hines: Yeah. They look at them and feel like crap.
Jasira Maroun: Do women ever look at them and feel good?
Melina Hines: Well, maybe. Is that how you feel? I mean, they're sexy pictures. How anyone feels when they look at them doesn't really matter. It's private. But how a kid your age got a magazine like this, that isn't private. Who gave you this?
Jasira Maroun: [no answer]
Melina Hines: Jasira, did an adult give you this?
Jasira Maroun: [no answer]

I'd also like to point out this movie has more WTF moments than anything I've seen in recent memory.
Another thing I was struck with is just how commonplace, how "normal" the events in this girl's life appear, and that is even more disturbing.
I'd like to close by saying this movie will not be enjoyed by everyone, nor will it be understood by everyone. This is a major piece of film-making and a major piece of storytelling, though, and if you don't mind extremes, definitely give this one a try.
