i see ppl say that they think Nikki sees Bear as a loser from the beginning but my read has always been that she liked him back and he was simply too much of a coward to get what he wanted. makes the whole thing more interesting / tragic / darkly funny imo
One infuriating thing about Obsession is no one actually ever hurts Bear physically. The entire movie he's freaking out and getting covered in other people's blood and all the women around him get beaten senseless but this spineless little worm gets to go out on his own terms.
Wemby generally seems like a really smart and curious person who's interested in a lot of things, but he's definitely going to get "LeBron reading Malcolm X" treatment for some of these side quests because most casual sports fans are incredibly stupid and don't understand the concept of a professional athlete having interests/hobbies outside of their job.
Girl there is no happy ending. Nikki either goes to jail or ends up in a psych ward for the rest of her life. Thats the extra reminder of the horrors of a man’s obsession with you, the consequences you suffer because of his actions
