Re: Devil's Arithmetic movie - Appropriate?
If you have to ask, then it's not appropriate.
I wouldn't appreciate you deciding to show a movie with
implied nudity to my 6th grader. That is for the parent to
decide.
Unless you're teaching 'Intro to Film/Theater/Literature' to
6th graders, it's really not appropriate.
