The gym was safe territory for sexual discussions and the coach a noncontroversial facilitator. Although it might not seem unusual today, the achievement of this film seems to me to be the way that it naturalizes sexuality and creates an open atmosphere where all questions, no matter how misguided, draw serious adult attention. Unlike Molly Grows Up, staged in the midst of the nuclear family, As Boys Grow shows sex education for boys as a team effort supervised by a fatherly coach figure. As Boys Grow, produced in the relatively liberal San Francisco Bay Area, presents regular boys asking regular questions and contains frank discussion of such topics as nocturnal emissions. It was unusual to show children speaking relatively freely about sexuality, and because of the necessity of educating girls about menstruation, more addressed girls than boys.
Most of these films concentrated on the physiology of sex and reproduction and were replete with animated "plumbing" diagrams. Prior to the period of frankness that began in the mid-1960s, relatively few sex education films were actually produced in the United States. The coach is the authority figure and teacher. Deals with sexual organs, masturbation, wet dreams, and other male issues. Sex education film geared for teenage boys. May not it be so.Sex education film aimed at teenage boys, with the coach as authority figure and teacher. I have a strong apprehension that the under age actors in the documentary (?) are victims of art or run into it upon penury. Whatever be the freedom extended to art forms, child nudity and child sex should not be allowed as a lucrative art.Let the children be children as immaculate lily.
Being the paternal parent to my two daughters, I could not digest this on screen element. Behold it at your leisure, invest your wisdom on it, and infer whether it is a documentary or an under age sex farce. Perhaps to a connoisseur of existential realism, the film may be depicting what might have been going through the rungs of infancy to puberty of boys and girls.But in my opinion, one should not invest on such taboos to woo finance, but okay if the real intention is pedagogy.It seems the under age actors donned for the film are of the actual age as portrayed in the documentary. It purports to be a sex education film and to a certain extent, it is so.But the nudity and sex shown in the film is somewhat bizarre and not at all appealing what it is trying to claim.It subtly exploits under age nudity and sex to earn the lot.
