> It's an intelligent women's movie about men, women, sex, and domination.
> I loved it, all three times. I related to the main player, big time. She ended up murdering her mate.
>LOL, and I thought it was about planes. Silly me, I forgot that the main character was Jocasta. Oedipus kills himself because as a child he didn't have the wright (no typo) tools to please her.
For a second there I thought OCD was faulty brain chemistry.
These thoughts bring up bad memoried for me. No, my mother didn't use a strange form of operant conditioning on me. Actually, I used to work where Bob works. There was this famous guy who developed a school for severely disturbed kids. His name was Bettelheim. He was a holocaust survivor and was an art history major or something. He was bright, very bright, pompous and creative. He developed ideas about treating disturbed kids, some great, some not so great. One of the not so great ones was blaming mothers for autism, "refrigerator moms," I think he called them. When you can't explain something, make it up, I always say.
