Has anyone seen movie White Oleander

[Kater]

My mother and I watched it together this summer. I really liked it--- both an intense and sad film.

I cannot remember specifics about violence/language/sexual situations, etc. Sorry.

I would suggest just doing a search online for reviews of this film and then you can judge for yourself whether you think it is appropriate for your daughter. However, reading these extensive reviews can sometimes reveal too much.... You can never win!

A quick search revealed this info....

"Rated: PG-13 for mature thematic elements concerning dysfunctional relationships, drug content, language, sexuality and violence."
http://www.movieeye.com/reviews/get_...view/1086.html

And I agree with both of these reviews....

"The Bottom Line: Interesting coming of age story, but full of violence, hypocrisy and little hope. Not for children. Watch it for the heroine instead."

"The Bottom Line: It is excellent, because it is dark, realistic, brutal and never wallows on in sentimentality. It also features amazing performances."

Hope that helps!
