I <3 how on the first viewing of stoker it's impossible to tell what India actually feels for uncle Charlie right up until she shoots him through the neck
#mia is sooo good in that role she nails that shadowy alien loner vibe#and is so good at conveying the range of emotions india feels for charlie - fear/disgust/attraction/obsession etc#how it builds suspense bc you really cannot tell what she's gonna do by the end of the movie#also really love how it's not so much charlie that india is attracted to#but moreso the ability to embrace this violent nature/will to power thing she can't under her mother's control#and of course there's the whole ''if i were a man i'd be [charlie]'' type of gender envy like between shiv and ken#but the most captivating To Me is how it's a v real problem that you face in the incest dynamics#where fear/revulsion and attraction does sometimes mingle#and india's not punished for feeling this attraction. and she does the right thing by killing charlie/saving her mother#but how it ends with her using this predatory nature she learned/absorbed from charlie to live her best life#using that experience to better herself. which is kind of the ultimate fantasy#stoker
