09/20/2018 This is another attempt to further the myth that sometimes rape leads to romance. Or, that women sometimes enjoy rape (perhaps subconsciously?). I thought by now that men and women had agreed that rape was never desirable under any circumstances. Perhaps it could be suggested that the film was exploring the idea of the Stockholm Syndrome. If they were, I feel like the viewer would need to be aware of this somehow. Because otherwise, you get the sense that this young woman somehow enjoyed being raped. And that would be promoting a myth, as I said before.
