While this movie is very cerebral and of interest to adults, the implied sex and harsh language are not good for little children to see. Actually, I found it rather boring, and the sound track is grating and annoying.

Excellent Movie!!
This movie deals with many adult issues that younger kids may not understand. But most kids over the age of 12 or 13 will understand the issues--although girls will probably enjoy the film more than boys. Some kids may find the slow pace of the film hard to sit through. The three main actors do an excellent job and potraying depression, suffering, and a feeling of helplessness. If younger kids see this film, you should discuss depression and suicide with them as these themes are repeatedely shown in the film.
