Frank & Lola (2016)
10/10
Nasty Underpinnings

Am I the only one who brought a clinical eye to this movie while watching these two characters devour each other and establish a "trauma bonding" addiction to each other. What that meant for me was that Frank was irrresistably attracted to this girl who was irresistably attracted to him while neither of them was even remotely aware of the true underlying nature of this attraction. They came together, as so many couples do, in order to perform their little dance with each other - she the sex addict helplessly drawn to acting out her wierd needs with men other than her partner; and he the rage-a-holic now to be provided by her with ample excuses to blow his top and eventually either kill her or at very least put her in the hospital. Was the director or screenwriter even aware of this angle or did they view this situation in some kind of sugar coated way.
