This week's movie - The Girl Next Door


As I have said before, On a Sunday DD and I like to sit down and watch a DVD.
This weeks offering was The girl next door.
I thought this was your average Teen coming of age movie but it was a whole lot more adult than that. Yes it had the usual girl meets boy element but there was a lot more swearing and gratuitous sex than I had imagined. I realised though by the end of it, I didn't feel as uncomfortable watching it with my 14 yr old daughter than I might have done. I used to really shy away from anything that had any kind of swearing or even minor nudity as It made me feel quite uncomfortable and embarrassed. However I have come to terms with the fact that swearing is a part of life in general. God knows all those parties we used to go to, we would be the only ones in the room who didn't say the F word at least every 2 sentences.

I realise though that It was when I was just 14 that I used to watch the Popsicle movie with my mum. I am sure she must have felt a little uncomfortable watching them with me as they were a lot more adult orientated than anything I have watched so far with my daughter.

Back to the film itself.
The story basically is about a Boy who is about to graduate from school and a new girl moves in next door. They become friends and quickly he falls for her then he finds out she is a big porno star. Very funny and worth a second watch in my opinion.
