Review

There is nothing funny or sexy about date rape, whether from the point of the victim or the victimizer. Often, what turns out to be a life-altering, enduring tragedy begins as two people, each of whom simply wants to have a bit of fun. Missed communications, perceptions altered by expectations, an abundance of alcohol fueling animal impulses, and what starts out as two friends on a lark ends with felony charges and lifelong therapy. A Reason to Believe (1995) is set on a college campus and raises questions that every student of higher learning should consider. The number one thing to ask: Why expose yourself to a legal nightmare and ruined reputation when there are so many willing and lucid partners aching to play fair?
