Like all adaptations there are varying degrees of differences to the original text, however the reviews some of the others are ridiculously narrow-minded, this adaptation is a new / novel approach to an old theme. The original text was to warn children to adhere to parental advice and if you do not the consequences would be dire. This adaptation takes into consideration the changing world and what is seen as normal in today's society, just because this film has the courage to do so and reflect it back onto the viewing audience - I say the writer / producer / director team did extremely well. Don't deny artistic integrity, embrace it and encourage the arts. OK its not your cup of tea - do not brandish it paedophilic in its interpretation.
