In Reply to: Re: Despicable? Daniels' character? I didn't find him so at all. Please posted by PhilJ on April 10, 2006 at 14:33:15:
".......but I remember him hitting the tennis balls at his wife and trying to turn the kids against her. Also I thought he was judgemental, petty and shallow. Remember the philostine (sp) scene with his son?"....... I just watched this movie and while I agree with the tennis ball bit, I never got the impression he was trying to turn the kids against her. Daniels' character (Bernard) was hardly shallow, but he was certainly judgemental and an intellectual snob. Of course, the wife had a few faults of her own, namely her inability to be faithful to her husband. In fact, by the end of the movie I had lost track of how many affairs she'd had over the course of their marriage - at least three, I think. Both of the parents (actually the kids too, although they didn't recognize it) were terribly lonely and longed for some type of emotional connection. Although the youngest boy's actions were the most dramatic (and disturbing) each of the four was acting out.
