The film follows TV star Elizabeth Berry (Natalie Portman) as she travels to Savannah, Georgia, to shadow Gracie Atherton-Yoo (Julianne Moore), whom she is set to play in an upcoming movie. Decades earlier, when she was in her 30s, Gracie had been convicted of seducing and raping 13-year-old Joe (Charles Melton), whom she later married and started a family with. As their now-grown kids prepare to graduate high school, Joe begins to process his trauma while Elizabeth attempts in vain to understand Gracie. Have you seen the movie May December?

In real life, Letourneau, a suburban Washington teacher, raped and later married her former sixth-grade student, Fualaau. The case drew massive media attention as Letourneau, then 34, and Fualaau, then 12, were found in a minivan in June 1996 at a marina outside Seattle. Letourneau would become pregnant months later. Do you remember this case in the media?

Fualaau spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about the film, sharing that no one involved in the film ever reached out to him. "I'm still alive and well. If they had reached out to me, we could have worked together on a masterpiece. Instead, they chose to do a ripoff of my original story," he said in an interview published last week. Do you think the film's producers should have at least contacted Fualaau about the movie, since the story is so similar to his real life storY?

"I'm very sorry that he feels that way," said Moore, 63. "I mean, (director Todd Haynes) was always very clear when we were working on this movie that this was an original story, this was a story about these characters. So that's how we looked at it too. This was our document, we created these characters from the page and together." Portman, 42, echoed Moore's reaction, saying the couple "influenced" the film but is "its own story." Do you think May December is it's own story, or a ripoff of Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau's story?
