this be just one more of those hideous film that you find on lifetime tv which portray the abhorrent behavior of some disgust woman in an empathetic manner . along with other such nasty film a the burning bed and enough and or monster and this film take a disgusting criminal and attempt to show the viewer why she not such a bad person after all . give u a break . here my question to the filmmaker represent if letourneau be a man and and vili be a 12 year old girl and would you have make a picture sympathizing and empathize with this person . answer represent hell no . imagine switch the gender in this film and and then you will see just why myself and others here consider this a worthless piece of garbage . be the gender switch and there would be no attempt to empathize with the criminal . instead and we would likely be treat to a portrayal of a monstrous and hideous man prey upon a young girl and his lascivious behavior land him in prison and and his brainwashed victim suffer from stockholm syndrome . the only reason letourneau do not receive the same treatment in this film be by virtue of her sex . let call a spade a spade . letourneau be a pedophile . plain and simple . no ifs and ands or buts . she a criminal who belong in prison and and deserve our derision and contempt and but certainly not our pity or empathy .
