Didn't this film get rated R? What are your opinions on that? As a fellow victim of bullying, I completely understand how much impact this film could have on public schools, but I believe the R rating will keep it from some of the people who could benefit the most from seeing it. At the least, young people wouldn't be able to watch it without parent permission, and since bringing adults into the conflict is part of what the film is about, it would have to overcome the very problems it's trying to solve to even be seen by young people. I'm very excited to see this film, but really wish that it was more accessible to a younger audience.
