Why'd he lick her? (SPOILER)


When one of the two antagonists had the heroine over the cliff, he shakes her violently hearing some guy's voice in his head and then he licks her. Obviously I don't understand his behavior, lol. Yes I know he's a murderer probably either going off the deep end or already gone round the bend, but I still don't get it.

cuz he's perverted....

It was Sandra's B's character who was hearing the voice in her head of her ex-husband trying to kill her & I think Richard licked her because he was getting so turned on about killing her. Weird I know, lol

reply

yeah it was just mainly his sick nature, and after a few takes, it says that he asked Sandra if he could do it to "prove his sick nature" and make it more like known or w/e....

reply

Whatever the reason, It was hot!

Yes, he did.

I'd let Ryan Gosling lick me.

I think I ate the sticker!

reply

Maybe it's just something Ryan likes to do, I mean random point I know, but he licks Rachel McAdams big time when they have the love scene in The Notebook

Chandler: on second thoughts, gum would be perfection. (thinks) Gum would be PERFECTION??

reply

He licked her because Ryan Gosling loves to lick his leading ladies. He licked Rachel McAdams in The Notebook as well and he ended up dating both ladies, Sandra and Rachel. He seems like he would be really good in bed. A girl can only dream... ahhh.

Since he ended up dating them both, maybe he was marking his territory? Like a cat or something.

My friend, don't be a jerk!

When you've got Sandra Bullock close enough to lick, you lick! :D

reply

Actually, that scene where Ryan's character licks Sandra was not written in the script, from what I read. Ryan asked the director, or somebody in charge, if he could pull a scene like that, to prove his character's sick nature. Can you picture this: Ryan to the cast and crew "I didn't do that right. Please, may we shoot that scene again..." "Still didn't feel right. One more time, please." LOL!

I thought that scene was hot, regardless. Lucky Sandra, not her MBN character, to be on the receiving end.

From the Trivia section of this movie on this website:

The scene near the end of the movie, where Ryan Gosling licks Sandra Bullock's face, was not scripted. After a few takes, Gosling asked Bullock if it would be okay if he added it in to prove his character's sick nature.

reply

^^LOL!! Many men would love to lick Sandra Bullock. What's going on with Gosling licking women? He did same thing in The Notebook too.

It is possible that he licked her as a way of showing he was no longer cautious. It was as he was saying, "Look! I'm doing this out of rationality and do not care if my DNA covers your face!" He no longer gets a thrill out of planning his attacks; he wants the rush from being rash and spontaneous and his view on murder completely changes in this moment.

imo that was so unnecessary. no wonder it was not in the script and it added absolutely nothing to the character or to the movie.

Oh, I thought it added to his need for power, because all throughout the movie he was using sexual advances to dominate her and break her down. He called her out on everything and had a knack for picking women with weak relationships with men. (He even said of Lisa," It's amazing what a girl without a father will do for a little male attention" or something like that). Idk, it made me cringe.

reply

A lot of murders get sexual kicks from killing.

reply

I didn't think it was that confusing ... did no one see him briefly kiss her before licking up her face? Sexual power, just like he tried with her all through the movie along with the other girl.

If I ever start referring to these as the best days of my life, remind me to kill myself.

Go to spoilers in trivia and find the reason why he did.

There's something wrong with Esther.
