THE BABYSITTER 2007 MOVIE
While the ending has quite a strong impact (at least initially), the movie may not be as touching as it thinks it is - no pun intended. nice bonus on top of her regular babysitting fee. well if that dance club was euphimism for having sex that is. High school senior Shirley works as a babysitter to save money for college. It is because of the struggle of the main character to maintain control, not just over her own life, but those she affected. But and that is the point I am trying to make, the movie works anyway and with little titilation. There is definitely a very long frontal nudity shot of our main female character - in case you care one way or the other. Then again times have moved and some are more sensible than others. So while there is a sort of warning that there is lots of nudity and sexual situations, it didn't really feel that way. And the female counterpart is great also (forgot her name - but she certainly was an adult at the time of shooting - they wouldn't allow it any other way in America). John Leguizamo is a really good actor too. The depiction of how it all starts is also well done. On the other hand, the movie only exists because there is a fantasy about that. I reckon movies like this (not these - a typo or small mistake in the movie, never mind) one right here, are responsible for wives being wary of Babysitters. While the film has a great story to tell, I felt that the script was a bit naive.īottom line: it is a tensioned, raw even, autopsy of the real suburb feelings: the taken for granted wives, the ignored teenagers and the powerful urges of the overworked middle aged men, overlooked by their spouses.
The girls are all beautiful, Katherine Waterson plays great John Leguizamo again brings great quality to a movie the direction is really good. In the end it all comes down, as it would be expected, but it unravels the complex feelings underneath in the process. I felt that the high school teens were much too eager to have sex with strangers and that the wives were terrible if they didn't smell anything suspicious. It is an audacious concept: babysitting teenagers are acting as high pay prostitutes for the fathers that drive them home. I marked it high because of the original script idea and the great acting, but I have to say that the ending could have been better. Reviewed by siderite 8 / 10 A rather good idea with great start, but a bit of a simple ending Can this end well, or is it a tragedy in the making? Do we all have secrets?. Then one of the girls tries to freelance.
Shirley can be ruthless, and tension builds when some of the clients take the girls-and some drugs-to a mountain cabin. A cup of coffee on the way home from his house, a night visit to a train yard, and one thing leads to another. It starts with Michael, the father of children she baby-sits. A long flashback reveals what has brought her from being a babysitter to organizing and running the service. At 17, high-school junior Shirley Lyner is thinking about college and running a babysitting service that provides teen call girls to the dads of young children.
