Stalking guy
I wanted to talk about how weird the guy is who eventually brings the daughter to Sylvia.
He is stalking her, then offers a ride home when it's raining, and she invites him in to her house. But he almost can't talk . Then he just leaves when she approaches him undressed.
The next time they meet he is stalking her from behind. She turns around and asks what the hell he wants (actually I don't remember what she said). Then he shows her the photo of her daughter and tells the whole story. If he had something to say, why didn't he approach her like a normal person?
The next time they meet he surprises her by bringing the daughter although she had said she didn't want to meet her. Isn't it a bit drastic and unsensitive to bring the daughter unannounced? He could at least have explained what had happened to the father so she would understand the whole thing. I don't know what he was trying to achieve by surprising her with the daughter.
When Sylvia changes her mind and wants to meet the daughter, he refuses to let her do that! How strange and illogical is that? She obviously wasn't prepared before.
It's an annoying character to me, and the way the movie mystifies him, overdramatizing things, prolonging everything.
