Obsession

Hi! So, this is my fourth time watching this film, and I just want to say that i really love this and that you shouldn't be focusing on who the real villain is because it's so obvious. Bear isn't the villain just because he wished to the willow for Nikki to love him, cause how in the world would he think that was going to work? He is a coward yes, but that doesn't make him the villain. Instead, it's the way he actively chooses to ignore the fact that her bodily autonomy has been completely stripped away, that is when Bear becomes the villain. I'm so fed up with the discourse on my local Twitter saying that the director intentionally used Bear's POV to side with him. When we watch the film, we can clearly see that Bear is portrayed as the jerk after he tastes control over Nikki's body. I think that's how Curry wants to bring out the horror in the film, by showing how this "Nice Guy" can turn into real evil once he gets a taste of power.
