I havent seen the film, dont know I even will anytime soon. The filmaker is going to say the scenes were needed to tell the "story" in the most believable manner. But on the side of taste when it comes to such a subject, and the wide amount of viewers who will see the movie, any such scenes need not be included for the story to be told in a manner in which the viewer will relate to or understand. I dont think Hollywood really should go there in any form simply because it is a VERY slippery slope. Where one mainstream movie breaks ground, more will follow. Teen programming has already dived well into the realm of where some could say it has pornographic implications as many of the most popular shows in teen prime time features storylines with high school teens obsessed with sex , parties and popularity. Some of the intimate scenes of Dawsons creek would have been appauling and banned from TV only 25 years ago. MTV and other teen entertainment is very sexually motivated. Allowing Hollywood to have an inch will result in a mile. IMPO, however, as long as it is done in a manner that does not "cross the line", and has real artistic merit that adds to the movie, I am OK with it.
