Dustin Friedman @dustinfriedman.bsky.social · 28/12/2024I think my issue was that the guy was not believably hot enough for her to risk it all. I understand that she’s getting something else from him, but he’s a rat face (which ok I can go for sometimes), but you’re going to go for that twerp when you’re getting railed by Antonio Banderas on the regs?? 120

Dustin Friedman @dustinfriedman.bsky.social · 26/12/2024Spoiler warning, I guess?? I can’t figure out if the use of “Father Figure” in Babygirl is ironic or not, and this is actually a major determining factor of my feelings about the film. 020
