Movie review – “Mysterious Skin” (2006) **1/2

Pretty full on film about the effect a molesting baseball coach has on two of his charges. There’s a sex scene involving an eight year old boy! (I’ve got to say this is handled quite well.) There’s stuff about warped sexuality, teen hustlers, forbidden secrets. It’s not exactly a barrel of laughs but it has strong moments. Good cast - Joseph Gordon-Levitt is going to have a long, long career (he’s already been around for almost 20 years).
