TOWELHEAD. Pretty ok high profile drama. 13 year old half libanese half american girl starts to explore her sexuality. This came from TV actually, so that's the reason I even came across the movie. Start with stepfather offering assistance of trimming her pubic hair, continues to be sent out to live with her real father. various conflicts of cultures colliding. Name calling, dubious interracial realitions, neighborhood honky fingerfucking her virginity, black guy from school dis-approved by his father performs 20 sec intercourses.
It is, really just... hmm, lets say "intelligent movie", just drama about the problems on teenage life in multicultural society, but for me it was most of all entertaining due all the catchy lowest-interests topics: racism, taboo sexuality, abusive behavior, etc.
But talk about lowest interest and taboos, while Towelhead is artistic enough to be actual movie, you can see opposite: Happened to have displeasure of seeing from TV this turd called Extreme Movie. I guess, you could list many of the same "taboos" in that context too... but come on! Maybe for being american child, you could find it amusing to see few quick tits and asses, fart humor, jokes of STD's and fucking sheep & midgets, but one wonders how damn worthless garbage is being sold as youth comedy? Of course, what else should have expected, but well, works as reminder that all what includes some sort of "offenses" and supposed "extremes", ain't worth 60 seconds of your life.
