Babadook Director Defends Sexual Assault Scenes In Controversial New Movie

Babadook Director Defends Sexual Assault Scenes In Controversial New Movie

Sexual assault is a theme that is difficult to confront in a manner that audiences at large will find acceptable. Even if based on historical events and precedent, theres a line that exists between what counts as enough and what counts as too much, as The Nightingale writer/director Jennifer Kent has just found out first hand.

After the latest film from the writer/director of The Babadook received some negative press for inciting several audience members to walk out of The Nightingale, Kent spoke towards these events in a statement that included the below remarks:

I do not believe this would be happening if the film was at all gratuitous or exploitative. Whilst The Nightingale contains historically accurate depictions of colonial violence and racism towards our Indigenous people, the film is not about violence Weve made this film in collaboration with Tasmanian Aboriginal elders, and they feel its an honest and necessary depiction of their history and a story that needs to be told. I remain enormously proud of the film.

From the early reports that have come out of The Nightingales early screenings, there are apparently repeated instances where a character is being sexually assaulted on screen. But the rage towards Jennifer Kents depiction of that horrific act isnt based around the act itself, but instead it seems to be pertaining to the frequency of the act included in the film.

This criticism was most bluntly expressed by an audience member who, during the films premiere in Sydney this past Sunday, exclaimed upon her exit, "Im not watching this. Shes already been raped twice. And yet, Jennifer Kent is resolute in the film shes presented the audience, as she told The Independent in her remarks, enforcing that the atrocities shes put onto film were historically accurate.

The Nightingales overall story isnt centered around this particular event though, as Aisling Franciosis protagonist Clare is pursuing a Lieutenant Hawkins, a British officer played by The Hunger Games Sam Claflin, through Australia in 1825. Her quest to find this man is rooted in the fact Hawkins has murdered her husband and infant child, and basically gotten away with these acts.

With a story that grim and brutal, much as The Babadook before it, its almost a surprise that The Nightingale would catch such fire for depicting the subject of sexual assault. But with various films in the past using that very theme as threadbare justification for character motivations, the discomfort a repeated execution of such an act on the screen would incite is a pretty big discussion point.

It can be assumed that distributor IFC films will stand by Jennifer Kents statement, and will release The Nightingale without any alteration. But if enough audience members complain, there might be a push for both parties to discuss a re-edited version of the film. And while most audience petitions these days are for frivolous matters, this might be one that catches fire, in hopes of boosting the films distribution prospects.

For now, it should be advised that if any potential audience member for The Nightingale has an aversion to sexual assault depicted in film, this just isnt going to be a film for them.

The Nightingale is slated for debut in limited release on August 2nd, with a nationwide expansion to follow at an undetermined date.

Spider-Man Spinoff Silver And Black Has Hit A Setback

Spider-Man Spinoff Silver And Black Has Hit A Setback

The nascent Sony Spider-verse will officially kick off later this year with the release of Venom, starring Tom Hardy. Venom is just the first piece in a universe that will presumably, be operating without Spider-Man. Fortunately the Web-Head has more than enough allies, villains and acquaintances to fill a film slate. Another Spider-verse entry that is in the works is Silver and Black, about Spider-Man frenemies, Black Cat and Silver Sable. Silver and Black was previously set to hit theaters on February 8, 2019, but it has now been removed from the calendar entirely.

This is not necessarily a bad sign because Silver and Black has not been cancelled. It's simply pushed back, and as THR reports, Sony is looking for a new release date for the film. The film's director, The Secret Life of Bees' Gina Prince-Bythewood, recently spoke to the fact that the team was still trying to figure out the script. So the reasoning for the setback and Silver and Black getting taken off the calendar seems to be to give the writers more time to get the script right. The most recent draft of the movie comes from writers Lindsey Beer and Geneva Robertson-Dworet, who have worked on Chaos Walking and Captain Marvel, respectively.

We had heard back in February that production had been delayed on the film, so it isn't entirely surprising that it won't hit that February release date with less than a year to go. We haven't heard any casting news to this point, so it sounds like Sony is really focused on finalizing the script before rushing this thing into production. With writers and a director onboard, Silver and Black did seem to be the furthest along of Sony's spinoff movies outside of Venom, so it is a bummer that we won't be seeing it quite as soon. Fortunately it isn't being scrapped, and for now, we can still look forward to it coming down the line.

Perfecting the script before moving ahead on Silver and Black sounds like the right call. Too often we see studios rushing movies to hit release dates or moving ahead without creative direction. Sony's Amazing Spider-Man movies didn't perform as well as they could have, so the studio is smart to take a measured approach to building out this Spider-verse. Sony almost certainly has other irons in the fire too, with the rumored Morbius and Nightwatch movies, and probably some other things that are in the earliest of stages that we haven't heard about yet. I think Venom will tell us a lot about the direction this universe is headed in, and depending on its success and reception, it will potentially influence what comes after.

Sony's Spider-verse begins in earnest when Venom arrives in theaters on October 5. We'll keep you updated on Silver and Black and all the latest news about Sony's Spider-Man spinoff films.
