I really liked the incest.

Are you stirring shit, being truthful, or both? I didn’t hate it in the context of the film, but I didn’t find it hot or whatever. It’s just another sad, horrifying bit of storytelling.

I feel like it fit the film's air perfectly. It was sad and tragic all the same, but it worked.

I don't mind the fact that fictional incest pissed off the purity police, and I am quite pleased to admit to liking it for the reactions I get, but no, the main reason I bring it up is because I found it hot and it's the thing I remember clearest from the film.

I felt kind of gleeful about it since most Gothic Romances are adapted from stories written in the 17- and 1800s, and nobody of that era was willing to Go There. Hell, Hollywood wasn't willing to Go There in a mainstream movie until fairly recently. You can kind of understand why Edith's first thought is, "you're not really siblings" because why would she think of incest? The thought probably never crossed her worldview, in the literature she consumed and the safe little world she lived in.

So when Lucille was like, "oh no, we're totally siblings" I cheered because it felt like finally we're allowing something that, despite fitting the stories, was so taboo up until now. Gothic romances often have so many brooding heroes and messed up families, it's just makes sense. And it's totally fucked up, which is the point. Gothic Romances are about people who are totally fucked up.

Have you read Jeanette Ng's book "Under the Pendulum Sun"? I think you might like it.

It was very VC Andrews, to be sure.
