I have not read the novel - which I can only assume must be controversial! Probably and likely even more so than the movie itself. Handling issues of sexual nature, especially when kids are involved are .. well delicate as already mentioned. Especially when you have nudity in the movie too.
Now the shot was according to the filmmaker as comfortable as possible and all the things that some might interpret come from outside. Again just saying what the director is saying. I totally understand if someone does not feel comfortable enough watching this. Way better than being comfortable - but that is a discussion for a different time and is not meant to be a general judgement.
Back to this though, which has so many themes that involve coming of age and obedience, sexual awakenes and abuse (mentally and physically). Really well played by the actors, although maybe a bit too long for its own good. Since I haven't read the book, I can't say if this stirs away from it. Especially the ending may come as a suprise to many I imagine ... it is quite far out. Which depending how much you liked the movie up to that point will be a good or bad thing ...
