Douglas was then asked, if 2257 disappeared tomorrow, would the industry begin using minors in its productions? No, Douglas replied, both for moral reasons and because child pornography laws still exist?and attempting to recall thousands of DVDs because they contained an underage performer would be prohibitively costly, not just to physically recall the disks, but also to reimburse retailers and customers who'd bought the product. He also testified that for a company to have been found to have used an underage performer would hurt that company's good will among retailers, who would never again trust that company's product?and that besides, since all the performers in a movie are assumed to be adults, there would be no point in using an underage performer deliberately, since that person would be assumed to be an adult also; there would be no benefit to the producer.

Well put. 
This'll be very interesting to follow as it goes on... |
