Did anyone else have trouble with this relationship? It's professional. River has no choice but to attend sessions. He is ordered by the police chief.
And then he stalks her. She knows he stalks her and does nothing about it.
And then she comes to his apartment where there is obvious flirtation, etc.
Doesn't she breach all sorts of boundaries here?
She was extremely unprofessional in just about every possible way, yes.
I think "stalked" is rather overstating the case. He followed her around for perhaps a matter of hours while working up the courage to say he would try to trust her. There was no intimation of threat or obsession.
But however you view that, yes, she behaved very strangely with him, right from when she first passed him for duty when he was obviously unfit. I think it's because she wants to study him and use his interesting case as a stepping-stone to a career as an author and maybe having a TV show, that kind of thing. She's very ambitious, seems to me.
"I won't hold my bread."
Was a professional boundary crossed? Yes. Whether it rose to the level of "stalking" (or required a Herculean "suspension of disbelief") is debatable. Remember after he gives her the copy of Nat Geo's "World's Greatest Parks" she removes the center-fold picture of a lake, presumably in Sweden, and pins it to her office bulletin board.
To answer your question, I did not have trouble with their relationship. Read my review here: http://imdb.com/title/tt4258440/reviews-24
