Critical MeMe

Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Darling (1965)

The story in short: a very pretty model behaves like a spoiled brat cheating with someone's husband then on her husband, then on her boyfriend and then another husband. I’m not sure if I was meant to empathize with her, but my reaction was one of annoyance.

At one point, she refused a proposal from a prince with an explanation that went something like “I can’t possibly leave my life.” Since the life at issue was so unfulfilling and lonely, I can’t imagine why she balked.

Yeesh.
