“In heathen times you might have been a Great Priestess of Isis. Yet, in this strange and modern world your purpose is of greater worth. You are our salvation.”
Nikki begging Bear to kill her, and all he does is ask what’s so bad about being with him.
One of the most nauseating scenes I have ever witnessed.
Bear is one of the most selfish men in cinema.
He has little reaction to Nikki stabbing herself. He destroys Nikki’s life instead of simply asking her out. His selfishness resulted in the death of his two best friends.
Then he kills himself and leaves Nikki to deal with the consequences of HIS actions instead of giving Nikki what she wants.
I genuinely can’t think of a more selfish character.

One of the amazing detail in Obsession is that Bear falls in love with the version of Nikki he creates in his own head not the person she actually is.
That opening scene where he admires Nikki for giving money to a homeless man, only for us to later realize it was Sarah’s money all along says everything.
