True, but unfortunately we're talking about Americans here, and they don't seem to have the same view as the rest of us.

Since the creation of social networks and a small group showing indignation, anyone looking for their pretext to argue something, I remember the Dakota Fanning scene, many thought that the scene was real but it was not like that and they silenced their critics.

Oh, you mean the people who still won't use the metric system and cling bitterly to their Colonial Measurement stuff? Too funny.

Hounddog? Amazingly, there were people that took that one overly seriously. It might be an interesting debate about whether all the hullabaloo around it, hurt or helped the film?

1. Did the "controversy" generate more interest in the film, would we never have heard about it, if there haddn't been limited "outrage"?
2. Was the "outrage" faked by concern trolls?
3. Was the controversy staged by the filmmakers to get free publicity?
4. Did we all forget the lessons of the very similar "Bastard out of Carolina (1998)", also by a first time female director?
4b. Is Jena Malone a waaaay better actor than Dakota Fanning? ;-)

Here they did know how to use controversy as publicity.

In a ranking of the best 100 actresses list, the blonde white girl continues to lead and Jenna has few well-known roles.

There's European films where you see more of the young actresses that hasn't caused controversy, for example Piccole Labra and Is Slottet. Even in recent years there's been European films that contain young actresses that do topless scenes and no one is bothered by it, for example last year's Pia Piano which contains about 2 minutes of an 11/12 year old actress topless at a lake.

Precisely because it is Europe for sure we will not even see it on the billboard in the USA, it is only a question of a topless what if it had been a complete nude or love affairs in fact incendiary to the E.U.

Something we will see in Hollywood is a topless or adolescent 'mating' given if there was one in the past but for this century I don't think it will.

When comparing European/Independent movies to that of Hollywood young starlets you have to keep in mind a few thing
1 A lot of actress do not have the fan base/publicity behind them and go unnoticed.
2 That Europe is a lot more friendly to nudist resort and areas compare that to the USA
3 How much bigger is Europe film industry compared to that of the Hollywood
So think of 1995 Angela it had a topless 10 year old child with a 6 year girl that also went fully naked in it. It was a low independent movie that know one heard about. Even Sally Mann was still publishing nude pictures in books of her tween children at the time. And inde/ euro produces a lot more movie over Hollywood
Hollywood will try to sneak it in like on Stargate the tv show when u see a little girl topless go thru a medical procedure.(no idea if that was a mistake or not with the wardrobe) On the other hand, North America if they see a child in a bikini or some type transparent clothing showing every nook and cranny or naked; they will start to scream child porn when they catch wind of it. To the point they will try to get the show cancelled like Dance Moms. But you have to think why they allowed Brooke Shields to do playboy when she was 9 or 10 and still uphold the pictures as nude art today. I think they should allow more young actress to do playboy in the USA, The Olsen Twins, Dakota & Elle Fanning, with all the other blond bombshells that they had. Not to mention Jenna Ortega, Emma Watson; and the list as you know is pretty endless. Pretty sure that would just help kill the USA debt they have right now. No More Tariffs Need
