One of the creepiest images in American cinema

Idk why this quick moment always makes me feel uneasy.

Am I the only one who thinks it's a little hot?

I don’t find anything hot about it. But you also said SALO was hot and that’s disturbing.

Because you’re supposed to feel uneasy. This is the scene where Wendy understands Jack’s sexual abuse of their son.

Bears are used as a repeated motif of child abuse in the film. The Bear behind Danny’s head when the doctor questions him; the picture of the bears over Danny’s bed; the disappearing bear rug from the Colorado Lounge.

The tableau refers to the “fatherly love” scene when Danny enters Jack’s room and implies that Danny was forced to perform oral sex on Jack after the scene cuts away.

It really is creepy and totally unexpected when the scene comes on.
