She's horrified because she's been getting raped. "Now's the time to say something if so," wouldn't be needed if she was just going to clarify that her feelings are only ever going to be platonic. Also, the literal director and writer has confirmed this. Think you what you want.

What are you basing that on? Barker specifically said he filmed it both ways so that it wouldn't be clear, and that the movie was filmed from Bear's perspective to make it extra confusing. I've never seen an interview from him where he said what you're claiming.

Fair enough, confirm wasn't the correct word. I agree that things are filmed to be ambiguous and the dialogue is mostly ambiguous, but again - "Now's the time to say something if so" is the giveaway. Plus her body language at his response, like he mentions here.

This is one movie I wouldn't have mind the creators not explaining. The Tarantino briefcase annoyed the fuck out of me when I first saw Pulp Fiction. I was young and needed to know WTF was in that briefcase, but as I've gotten older I can appreciate the approach of letting me decide what I just watched. It's not a documentary. It's a movie to entertain me.

Then again if they hadn't clarified some points of the movie this debate would rage on for another 10 pages.

It was certainly vague in the rest of the dialogue, but no woman is going to say "Do you like me? Now's the time to say something if you do" if they weren't looking for a yes. That's really the one line that tells you she liked him despite all the rest.

Wat?

That scene was crystal clear. 1000% friendzone. This is an interesting Rorschach test.

I watched part of your clip. I see that the director intends ambiguity on this point. But what I'm saying is, watching that scene, it didnt seem even a little bit ambiguous to me.

I know there are conflicting inverviews and such, but I really don't think she actually had a crush on him. (Aldarion posted while I was posting this, so I'm repeating his basically).

If she knew he liked her, and she liked him, she had zero reason to be randomly hooking up with Ian. Women that friendzone dudes fuck other dudes, not women that have secret crushes.

Before I found out she was hooking up with Ian, I thought it was going to end up that she liked him all along, but to me that's a pretty clear indicator that she only sees him as a simp/friend.

Ian is clearly a douche in the very first scene, so I wouldn't consider this a spoiler.

Worst bro ever.
