Hard Candy [2005] - October 2nd 2011, 10:13 PM

This thread has been labeled as triggering, particularly on the subject of rape or abuse, by the original poster or by a Moderator. The contents of this thread might therefore not be suitable for certain sensitive users. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.

So, this is one of my favourite movies. I love Ellen Page (the chick off Juno) and she's amazing in this film. It actually annoys me that she's more well-known for Juno other then this She's brilliant in this film.

It's actually quite triggering so if you're triggered by sexual abuse I wouldn't really advice you to watch it. I'd also advice people who a squeamish not to watch it too (particularly men ) You'd understand why if you watch it lol.

Also, when I tell people I love this film they think I'm a weird feminist. I'm not lol.

Hahahaha, I love this movie. Ellen Page is good in it though she plays almost the same character she did in Juno in it.


"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it.
I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote,
“Dear Jim: I loved your card.”
Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.”
That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything.
He saw it, he loved it, he ate it."

The hipster chick thing wears off real quick but I guess this did come out first, so I can't hate her for it. It's a well made movie, love how the colours change depending on how mad she is. It's perhaps a bit unbeliveable how she manages to do it all...

I quite liked this film. A bit disturbing but I like the whole idea! Ellen Page is indeed wonderful.

And you're convinced that you're all alone
Look at the stars, instead of the dark
You'll find your heart shines like the sun

I'd never heard of this before but it looks really good and I love Ellen Page.
I'll definitely be watching this tonight!

I think it's a pretty good film and it wasn't till like the second time I watched it that I realised it was Ellen Page, probably due to the fact that the first time I saw it, I had no idea who she was but yeah, good film.

I saw it a couple of years ago and I thought it was pretty crazy, but very good. It was really well put together

Very freaky. Can't say I liked it to be honest, and I'm not yet 35 and living with my parents. Creepy how he hit on her and how she tortured him and shit.

Hah, haven't seen it in years but I loved it. She's kinda been in crappy movies since, but she was amazing in this and also that one where she was in a cult.

Pretty fantastic.


To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget

Can someone tell me how it ended?
I got up to her saying she was going to take a shower and be out of his life and then the video wouldn't play.

Spoiler:
he kills himself. He jumps off the building as she threatens to tell people he's a pedophile. She says if he kills himself she wouldn't tell anyone but she had her fingers crossed.
