Waltz with Bashir

Waltz with Bashir was about the 1982 Lebanon war, which I did not even know happened before last class period. I really enjoyed the movie none the less, even though it probably would have been easier to follow if I had been more acquainted with the events of the war. The movie was really depressing, but that should probably be the case since I would guess war and massacres are not a good time.
One thing that I did not really like about the movie was that it was subtitled. The animations for the movie were really good and I wish I could have just watched them instead of having to shift my eyes to the text frequently. At least one problem that can come from having a dubbed movie that is averted by this is having a bad dub just totally ruin the movie.
A question that came up when we were discussing this movie in class is if you were to use this movie in class what age do you think is the youngest you should show this. I have thought about this after class and I think it would be fine to show this movie to freshman in high school. One probably couldn't actually do that in the school system because there was the scene with pornography in it. This was the scene that people said was the reason why they wouldn't show it to people under 18. This scene was comic relief and I doubt this is one of the scenes that anyone found disturbing from the movie. The disturbing scenes from this movie were the ones of genocide toward the end of the movie. I remember from middle school I watch some World War Two and the holocaust, and in one of these movies I remember there was a scene from Auschwitz where a prisoner got mauled by a dog. If movies about Nazi prison camps can be showed to middle schoolers I see no reason why this cannot be.
