Mary Kay Letourneau - Eine verbotene Liebe

i loved this movie, its not many times that i watch a movie and the second its over i want to watch it again, but this movie did it for me...this movie portrays the life of Mary Kay Letouneau famous for having sex with a 13 year old student in her 6th grade class,Vili, and having 2 of his children. this movie is almost completely accurate, and the actors did a great job..the movie starts out with Mary Kay in prison and goes back to periods of her life, it portrays her childhood,her crappy marriage, and her relationship with Vili....it wraps everything into a good movie...my opinion on the Mary Kay Letouneau's actual case is that she definitely must be a little ill in the mind to have sex with a 13 year old and risk everything..in the movie it does say that Mary had bipolar disorder which distorted her thinking,but i don't know if i really believe that....the movie is great, i would definitely recommend it!!

I cannot believe some of the comments that I have heard on this sick story.This lady seems to have some type of mental problems to sleep with a 6th grade student.anybody in there right mind would no this type of behavior is not accepted.also to the ones who seems to think there is nothing wrong with this woman for sleeping with this child must have some serious mental problems as well.It goes to show what you are really about and what your intentions are as well.she stole this child innocence and that is wrong.also he was probably looking for love and she could have been a real woman and told him there is no way that we can have any type of romantic relationship I'm married with kids and you are my student and you are underage.but no she took advantage and slept with this child.Wrong WRONG!!!

I was very pleasantly surprised with this TV-movie about famous, for someone notorious, relationship between thirty-something Mary Kay Letourneau and her 13-years old student Vili. Narrow minds will never realize and accept various possibilities of human psyche and relationships, narrow minds have theirs "moral values" and laws which are so arrogant and stupid that is hard to believe. There wasn't any "rape", there was two people fell in love and made love through sexual intercourse. It's so natural and good, and only puritan and/or bigotry people can be against it. Unfortunately, most of people in United States and Europe today think that way. It's really sad. But movies like this, which try to have serious approach to delicate theme, are precious.

this film would be a dark and foreboding exposé on the horrors of child-rape. But a woman having sex with a boy is some mild story about forbidden romance, handled with kid gloves and a brief nod to 'oh, the mistakes the heart makes'.

To make a long story short, this shows how "Morally Challenged" America has become; especially subtitling it "All-American Girl". They turned a case of pedophilia and statutory rape into "Romeo and Juliet." The USA network was fastest to jump on this media hyped story and redramatized it!

They distorted a couple of things to make it palatable, first they hired a 19 year-old actor to play Mary Kay's 12-year old lover. Secondly it tells the women of America that it is okay to commit pedophilia if your husband is an insensitive jerk! But the movie, and the media failed to ask the tough questions! Like; what if it were a man, that had a baby with one of his sixth grade students? Will he be portrayed as a victim, or will he be instantly prosecuted and put under the jail?

If the teacher were male then the viewers would see this story for what it is; sensationalizing a story about a teacher that put their emotional needs and desires ahead of the well being of a child!
