I'm surprised this movie wasn't more controversial.


I would think Mitch having sex with an underage girl (even though he didn't realize it) would be enough to have people protesting it's release. It seems like one of the few areas where our society HASN'T gotten harder to shock.

She might have been 18 since she was a senior in high school.

There is no conclusive evidence they had sex, when she woke up, she was still in her bra and panties ;) plus this sort of stuff on campus anyway, and that's what this movie is all about.

In one of the deleted scenes, they said she was 17. (They were discussing whether it was OK or not due to the fact that she was under 18. Mitch was worried about it being a felony.)

In New York state, where the movie is set the age of consent is 17 so it wouldn't have been a crime anyway.
