Five Degrees of Kevin Bacon and Pedoph*lia
Has anyone noticed that Kevin Bacon has starred in at least five movies in which pedoph*lia has played a central role? In reverse chronological order:
- The Woodsman. His latest, now playing at Sundance. He's the pedophile.
- Mystic River. Tim Robbins is the pedophile, he's the cop.
- Wild Things. He's the pedophile, if Neve Campbell (or was it Denise Richards? Or both?) count as kids.
- Sleepers. He's the pedophile.
- Forty Deuce. He's a young hustler. The other guy is the pedophile.
