Review of Pretty Persuasion (2005) by Katelyn B — 14 Apr 2011
Three teenage girls (Evan Rachel Wood, Elisabeth Harnois, Adi Schnall) at an exclusive Beverly Hills private school accuse their teacher, Mr. Anderson, of sexual harassment. It's a dark comedy with an abundance of perversion, cussing, bigotry, and oral sex.
Beyond the humor is the story of a manipulative sociopath whose intentions eclipse that of exacting revenge against their instructor. The film's flaw is that it's too exaggerated, making for awkward viewing at times, but Wood shines, as always.
