The 1970s are an interesting time when it comes to cinema history. It is the time after the code was changed into the MPAA rating system ( allowing more violence, nudity and harsh language on the screen ) and yet before new blog-baster Hollywood was born. 1976's Carrie by Brian De Palma was already released after the 1974 Steven Spielberg sensation Jaws. But still before George Lucas broke the planet with his Star Wars. Everybody knew the movies were intense at that time. Some of the most depressing shit came out at the 1970s. And with it, there was also Carrie. A psycho-sexual revenge-tale about child-abuse.

Before you click on the blog, know this writer's review of Fifth Element contained a lengthy ramble of their personal defense of pedophilia, not simply contextualizing it within the movie. They are also a self-declared supporter of Richard Stallman, an advocate for the legalization of child pornography and pedophilia.

I must have seen this movie a thousand times,and I can't think of anything pedophilia related. What the fuck was he rambling about??
