I thought that the nature of the nudity was the entire point. It's been a little while since i saw the movie, but I quite well remember the distinction between her nude swimming being presented as her accepting life in the outback and the picnic scene in which the woman in a skirt is subject to hopeful glances from the men every time she moves her leg. I'm not necessarily defending the cinematic practice of evoking emotion just to get us to question ourselves for reacting as we do, as I frequently find it a bit pretentious on the filmmaker's part, but I do think that's what this movie was doing.
sharewas it a 12 due to nudity? I'd allow a kid of any age to see the nudity. To me the suicide scene was more likely to lead to a 12 certificate.
shareOh yes, what a mature comment. Nudity is shown in a very natural way in this movie, there are no sex scenes. I think the rating is fair. Now, tell me: would violence be 12 material?? Would you rather have your 7 yr-old brother watch "Hostel" instead?

I have no problem with nudity but a 12 for a movie with high criticism of modern society and with scenes involving a father trying to kill his son, two suicide and the cynicism of the world are something completely different. How can you for one second say that nudity is worse for a child than this? The nudity in this film wasn't even sexual.

^Right, because America is the only country with conservative attitudes toward nudity and sex. C'mon...
shareName another country where they ban or age limit ONLY sex but severe violence is okay.
Even Germany who bans certain words and violence accepts sex.

shareI agree that you probably shouldn't let your seven year old child watch this movie, if only for the suicide. The nudity didn't seem to bad to me. However, I disagree with the person who said that slightly-sexualized nudity is alright for a kid below the age of ten to see... Kids should know about sex, but letting them in on it too early isn't a good idea.
I watched this movie for the first time when I was fourteen... and don't remember being remotely finding any of it sexual.
I'm not going there to die. I'm going to find out if I'm really alive.
12 means suitable for people OVER the age of 12 - not under ! Your brother is 7 ! Are you really that dumb ?
That which does not Kill me makes me Stranger
