i am in a european film class, and we watched this film. before we discussed or even viewed the movie, my professor preempted it all with saying, "you are NOT supposed to feel sorry for her...thats not the point. so do NOT feel sorry for her"

maybe bc he said it, but i dont know all i found myself doing was feeling sorry for her...

so what is it that he meant...what am i supposed to think/feel???

I think film classes and courses have a lot to answer for.

To say a little often is to tell more than to say a great deal.

Like the cliche says, you can't help your feelings but you CAN help your actions. So it sounds ridiculous, what the professor said.
