My friend tried to get me to watch that in high school and I refused. I can watch almost any horror film without batting an eye but I absolutely cannot watch any film that has a rape scene. I had to watch "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer" for a class in college and I had nightmares for months. I wrote the required paper on the movie and in the paper I bashed the professor for subjecting me to that movie and told him that I would be sending him the therapy bills. I think he was scared that I would actually complain to the school about him so he gave me an A in the class. heh. I need to bitch more often.
When I was in college, I signed up for a self-defense class, which was taught by someone outside the college. The first day of class, the instructors brought in a TV and made us watch the rape scene in the Accused. Everyone in the class dropped it the next day, severely pissed off that we weren't warned that we'd have to watch it. I don't think that the self-defense instructors were ever invited back to the college to teach after that.
