   Is 'Pretty Baby' a perverted movie?

   • This is, of course, tragically perverted, but “Pretty Baby” itself is not a perverted film: It looks soberly, and with a good deal of compassion, at its period of history and the people who occupied it. The pretty baby of the title is named Violet, and is played by Brooke Shields, as an extraordinarily beautiful child.
