Martin's OCD
There's been some discussion about Martin's OCD up here, and I am still curious.
Do you think Martin really wanted everything arranged perfectly, such as the towels, or do you think this was purely a control thing over Laura?
I've seen a brief interview with Patrick Bergin (Martin) and his attitude about his character seemed to say that Martin needed things to be in a certain way, every single thing in his life in place.
The book states it very clearly that its not just a control issue with Laura/Sara, he WANTS it that way because it SHOULD be that way.
I truly think he was OCD & wanted things just so...not just for bullying Laura/Sara...that was just a plus for him.
But in the film, what do you think?
"I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus."
"Didn't he discover America?"
"Penfold, shush."
