I don't know if it's just me. In certain scenes, he almost seems to bully her into feeling bad for wanting to go back to school and what not. He comes off as a major dick.
Troll the respawn, Jeremy.
He was an ass hole.
shareI hate that scene because of what you said. It seemed like it was all about him. It didn't seem to matter what Kimmie wanted. he didn't even seem to be willing to talk about it again. So what, Kimmies not aloud to change her mind? You're not willing to talk about it again? Jerk.
Once upon a time there was a magical place where it never rained. The end.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who notices it. It's an incredibly misogynistic and abusive moment for their characters.
I don't feel enough for you to cry.
Oh well.
Pushing her to do karaoke was pretty crappy too, she was obviously terrified.
Sometimes a movie or tv show plot is so stupid that only the stupid can understand it.
And then the blank look he gave her when she started singing. He eventually smiled and laughed but geeze, the first look was so rude. Like you knew she wasn't a good singer??
shareYes, I remember seeing this movie as a teenager when it came out and hating his character for his emotionally and psychologically abusive ways, as specifically depicted in this scene.
shareYes Michael was good looking but not good husband material at all!!
Jimmy was expected to quite school prior to getting her degree which would have made her an architect so she could have her own career. She was made to have no honey moon cos Michael was going to drag her to Texas!! He took jules to Florence years ago so why not treat his wife the same. I thought his behaviour was disgusting. Singing to jules in the restaurant at how Shen looks beautiful, And his fiancé is bloody sitting right there. Laughing & joking with jules, ordering for each other in the karaoke bar and completely ignoring his wife to be!! If I were Kim, I'd have said "u know, what, I don't need this *beep* I'm meant to be number one in your life & im nobody's second choice!!
What a selfish *beep* Especially the "what am I meant to do with my life huh" comment.
No consideration for kimmys life. Basically he was telling Kimmi to shut up & just give up her life & follow him around in a poor paying job knowing his wife could earn a good salary and have her own career too. But no, he's so selfish she had to quit everything for him!!
