How about Flowers in the Attic of the Children of Incest?

This doesn't surprise me. Jeremy Irons definitely has a history of being obsessed with parent/child incest.

"Paedophilia should be treated as a disease, he says in a BBC interview to be screened next week. But it must also be recognised that children are attractive and that parental love has a 'sexual' element.

'It is very difficult because children under 16 are immensely attractive," he says. "Any father will tell you. I think our children have to be protected. But I don't think we need to have hysteria.'

Irons, 56, made the remarks when asked about his portrayal of Humbert Humbert, the lecturer who falls for a young girl in the film of Vladimir Nabokov's novel Lolita. When the film came out in 1998, he suggested that child abuse did not always ruin the life of the victim.

In the interview, Irons says his character was not a paedophile in the strict sense, as he 'knew that what he was doing was wrong'. Referring to his family, he describes the difficulties of judging the line between natural affection and paedophilia.

'I remember when my son was 12 and he was like a god. He just went through that sort of golden time for about 18 months. I don't have a daughter but they do the same.

'Parental love is sexual. Children practise on their parents. Girls will flirt outrageously with their fathers because they are practising. But we should know that that is practice. Boys will flirt outrageously with their mothers in a different way.'"
