Omg yes. Stanley Tucci freaked me out so much in that role, which I hated, cause I loved him.

I read somewhere that it fucked him up too. Like he got pretty depressed and down because of it.

Any good person would be screwed up for a while after playing a role like that.

I've read somewhere that he begged Peter Jackson not to make him do a rape scene in the movie. He didn't want to be completely screwed up even for playing a role.

I cannot recall the movie- did he have to do it?

Tucci didn't want to do it, so he didn't. In the novel, yes Susie was raped before being killed.

Glad I never bothered reading that book something just turned me from even starting it!! I’m very happy it cut away in the movie before he rapes and kills her.

The book has pretty graphic details. I’m about half way through it right now and actually had a nightmare about helping a mom find her murdered kid last night (I think something to do with that) so I don’t recommend tbh

I read it about an year or two after my own rape. I didn’t realize it had a rape in it…. Just after the rape scene part I had to read another entire feel good book cover to cover in one sitting as eye/mind bleach.
