Lost amid reporting about the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 election cycle, Netflix added a film to its streaming library that critics (including us) saw as borderline child pornography.
The French-made film “Cuties” centered around an 11-year-old girl who put together a dance troupe as a way to sort of break out of her parents’ and grandparents’ ‘conservative’ ways and ‘find herself.’

Naturally, the other girls in the troupe were of similar ages. And the dancing was nothing short of shocking.
The girls are portrayed in various scenes twerking while touching themselves in their private places very suggestively. Honestly, it is difficult to even watch – which is why we’re not including any video of the scenes in this story. What these girls, who have parents, presumably, and who are being directed by adults, do in this film isn’t ‘acting’ or dancing so much as it’s foreplay to a pedophile.
And a grand jury in Texas isn’t going to simply look the other way at this blatant attempt to normalize child sex.
Netflix has been indicted on a criminal charge over “Cuties” amid claims the movie promotes “lewd visual material” of a child. The lawsuit centers on Netflix’s release of the controversial French film “Cuties,” originally titled “Mignonnes,” last month to strong national reaction.
A Tyler County, Texas grand jury moved to return an indictment against Netflix on Sept. 23. Texas Rep. Matt Schaefer (R-Tyler) tweeted a photo of the indictment.
“Netflix, Inc… knowingly promote[d] visual material which depicts the lewd exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of a clothed or partially clothed child who was younger than 18 years of age at the time the visual material was created, which appeals to the prurient interest in sex,” and has “no serious, literary, artistic, political, or scientific value,” says the indictment.
In previous statements to media outlets, Netflix — which has signed Barack and Michelle Obama to filmmaking contracts, by the way (and no word about ‘Cuties’ from them, either) — has defended this filth, calling the film “a powerful story about the pressure young girls face on social media and from society more generally growing up.”
Also, the network’s excuses for the film are Orwellian.
“Cuties is a social commentary against the sexualization of young children,” a spokesperson for Netflix told Fox News. “This charge is without merit and we stand by the film.”
Got that? Sexualizing children on film is a ‘commentary against the sexualization’ of young girls.
Whatever. In Texas, they aren’t buying that.
A statement on Tyler County District Attorney Lucas Babin office’s Facebook page, posted Tuesday, says after he saw the movie, he “knew there was probable cause to believe it was criminal,” according to Fox News.

“The legislators of this state believe promoting certain lewd material of children has destructive consequences,” Babin continued. “If such material is distributed on a grand scale, isn’t the need to prosecute more, not less?”
Answer: Yes.
If this kind of ‘movie’ is allowed to be made without any pushback or legal consequence, then it will only lead to more – and more graphic – films of the genre.
