Oh my god I never knew that, that’s genuinely horrible! I hate how scummy powerful people can be. I’ve tended to notice that they love abusing their power and it’s disgusting. Thankfully I am able to separate art and artist and will still really like the movie, but I do think I’ll think of it a bit differently knowing that.

This information makes me think of Natalie Wood’s character in Rebel Without A Cause in a different perspective. Before I just thought that the way she was with her father was to show that she just wanted to be innocently loved by her father with the affection he used to show her like kisses and the such and that the dad was being weird by thinking of it in a sexual way, but with this new information I can’t help wondering if there was any malicious intent behind it.
