Kevin Bacon's new film "The Woodsman".
He plays a peadophile.
Now that's one of the few taboo subjects left, and personally I'm not sure if it should be considered entertainment - but the reviews I've been reading suggest it's an extremely delicate, intelligent handling of potentially hideous subject matter.
Trailer goes to great lengths to avoid actually saying outright what he is, you can imagine audiences kneejerking themselves into a frenzy.
And I'm waiting to see what The Daily Mail's reaction is going to be towards this.

That looks quite good might go and see that what age is it?
But it's a great help when you want to link a child actor to Kevin Bacon in that 'Six Steps to Kevin Bacon' game. Good on you Kevo!
I seen a review on Newsnight and they said it was made pretty well.
The Sun had Sara Payne doing an article on the movie, in which she told us of shouting "You can never be cured!" at the screen when Bacons character is asking "When will I be normal, when will I be cured?" and basically telling us peadophiles should be locked up and the key thrown away.
Left a bad taste in my mouth.
Want to see the movie myself, as it's apparantly hard hitting but morally ambigious.
