Posted September 8, 200618 yr Saw this film on holiday. It does view a bit like a TV movie but the famous scene is still very shocking. Thing is I fell asleep right at the end of it. I was up to the court case summations but I don't know the verdict or anything that happens after that? Has anyone seen it and can tell me how it ends?
September 8, 200618 yr Oh, GAWD, it's been ages since I saw this film. They get found guilty, not of rape itself, but of commissioning a rape. You're right though, it's still pretty powerful stuff. Have you ever seen a French film called "Irreversible"? The rape scene in that is truly unbelievably shocking... :o

It would be the happy ending as it were. Thanks for letting me know. I've heard of Irreversible but never seen it. From the reviews I've read, The Accused was the first Hollywood film to dramatise rape like that. Irreversible (and Sleepers, Monster, Boys Don't Cry etc.) took it one step further.
