Verführung einer Minderjährigen

This movie was shown on Lifetime as For My Daughter's Honor. I had a hard time watching Gary Cole playing this part. He did a believable job, but I think the fact that the school kept brushing it off and his wife never seemed to notice just made me squirm. I think the girl who played Amy did a good job, but her character didn't seem to have enough backbone to get out of a bad situation. It would be good to use to make girls aware of what's appropriate and what's not.

This movie was filmed at my high school my junior year!!! I remember it was so much fun filming! I am even in the class room scene...I am the girl that looks up at the clock when the bell rings...hehehe! The female leads were all really mean to us (they called us "Well-Fare Peasants") but, hey what can I say that was like 10 years ago, we were all a litter meaner in high school! I even had to make out with my boyfriend at the time on the front lawn of the school....good times!!! I will always be able to watch this movie and remember high school! PS: Two teachers were fired for doing the same thing "Coach Nash" did a few years later...talk about "art imitating life" this was "Life imitating Art!"

Very thought provoking, without being overly sexually explicit. At 16, Amy is unusually overly innocent. She would be menstruating, therefore would have some knowledge of sex. However, the teacher (coach Nash) being a known paedophile should not have been allowed to teach. He had already had a 'run in' with the school over a previous relationship the year before with another female student. The school were aware of his preoccupation with female students and should have been keeping an eye on him, plus he should have been reported the previous year. His sentence was incredibly light. Amy's parents handled the situation well, the school failed them, the other students failed her. Amy gets my vote for her determination to see justice prevail.

Gary Cole has remained an interesting character actor for me. It seems every performance he has given regardless of how big is always of superior quality.

From In the Line of Fire, to the Brady Bunch movies, to Office Space and I am sure many more Cole is one of our most underrated actors who in my opinion doesn't get enough credit.

I also enjoyed Nichole Tom in Beethoven 1&2 growing up as well as The Nanny so I was eager to check this out.

As some of the other reviewers have noted don't expect this to be an Oscar winner. It has the feel of a 90's made for TV movie for a reason.

I was also disappointed in the ending which I will not give away but it made me angry for a reason I will keep anonymous.

Movies on the subject of pedophilia have never been my cup of tea. Although it won five Oscars I hated American Beauty with a passion for this reason.

However this being based on a true story and handled with some intelligence in shining light on an issue that needs some attention didn't bother me.

In a way this is entertainment as both Cole and Tom are very good and elevate the movie highly with their superb performances.

But unlike American Beauty which was meant purely to entertain and express a disgusting form of art this movie has a message and one not to be ignored at that.

I recommend for performances and sensitivity exercises in dealing with a difficult subject matter.

Unlike some made for TV movies this doesn't have a cheesy feel to it and feels very real.

Give this a stream on Amazon Freevee if the subject matter interests you or you like the actors.

Not the most comfortable film to watch but deals on a very important issue in our society and overall handles it well.

It may look like a low budget TV movie but the acting is better than that and the payoff while predictable makes it better than your typical TV movie or after school special.

Frustrating to be sure but that is the point I feel as this is not the most pleasant subject matter out there for a movie.

Has its flaws to be sure but overall I recommend. I respect Cole even more after this and wish he would have had more leading roles and more appreciation as an actor.

He may not be an Oscar winner but he is an excellent character actor who I feel has never gotten his due. This movie along with the aforementioned rates him highly as an excellent actor for me. And while Tom played ordinary teenaged roles in Beethoven and The Nanny she more than holds her own acting in this.

Nicholle Tom (of Beethoven fame) is excellent as a 14-year-old pupil at a high school. You can see she just has a crush on him, where his feelings are much creepier towards her. But the fact that she was half willing to sleep with him, doesn't mean that he raped her. I'm sure people who have been in that situation will feel differently however. All in all a good cast helped make this movie point out several facts and good important points to be made. The fact that it wasn't graphical in the sexual scenes made it more enjoyable. As most movies concentrate on just sex. Whereas 'Indecent Seduction' focused on the emotional sides of both the pupil - who at such a young age is feeling vulnerable enough already, and the teacher. The end result was what I expected. So for people who haven't seen it, I won't spoil the ending. You can laugh, cry and sympathesie with all characters. So I recommend anyone to watch it, and see for yourself whether or not I am right with my comments.
