Do women give Connor a free pass because he's hunky?
(Spoilers)
Reading the contributions here I see comments such as "I should hate Connor more but..." and "OMG that scene in the kitchen in his jeans!" etc.
It made me wonder whether it was a good idea casting Fassbender. Had, for instance, Timothy Spall at his creepy best been cast as the boyfriend, I doubt if there would have been a single positive comment about him - he would have been universally condemned as an evil paedophile.
I'm not taking issue with anyone - it's a natural instinct to be sympathetic to characters sometimes, for whatever reason - it's just that this crime is usually regarded as unforgiveable and beyond the pale, yet some people seem prepared to cut Connor a little slack.
Awight we're The Daamned we're a punk baand and this is called Carn't Be Appy T'day!
