As a film, the actors don't play it like they're in love or involved in a sexual relationship. It's all done kind of ironically. TBH, I don't discern any real ideas or intentions related to minor attraction or its meaning on LaBute's part. It looks to me like a story being told by someone who's interested in shocking people but not in provoking any particular thought - except for the sake of saying, "Well, what if?", and that has value, at least a little. That is one thing that artists do. But it doesn't mean that he's on any side, other than willing to prod the complacent. Good for him, and it remains to be seen if it's good for the MAPs. |
