Living in Europe and being french, having watched this movie (in french of course), I can only say that, aside all the bs about dancing, this movie is an accurate depiction of childhood in a lot of area. You might hate it, think it is inappropriate, even illegal, but this is only what is going in IN REAL LIFE. If you dig a little bit of what is actually going on there, you might be surprised. USA you are a bit disconnected with reality, movies like this don't pop up from nowhere.,(reply>), "Diversity is our strength."
