This was almost 40 years ago. Things that are socially acceptable change. Times change. Not saying what he did was ok but this was not uncommon in Hollywood (and elsewhere) at the time.

Common sense and nuanced thinking are apparently unpopular.

Bro, "raping children was more common in the 90's" is common sense and nuanced thinking?

Adolescents having sex with adults was more common, yes.

Never heard of "Lolita"? Someone wrote a book about it, and it became famous. Can you imagine it? That's just incredibile.

Today, we know that is NEVER right. Should we hate the past? And cancel everything happened, and make a taboo just to talk about it, so that it will be forgotten and future generations will never know? Or just accept that it was different?

Lol nah dude I've actually read lolita, the narrator briefly considers murdering her mother before she dies in an accident and he's able to kidnap the girl. Imagine whining about people not understanding your nuanced opinions and then bringing up a book you're only vaguely familiar with to support your point

Edit: also people are literally talking about it and not forgetting, that's what upset you so much in the first place. So I don't even know what your point is, you're a fucking idiot
