Watching it this afternoon, seen it several times before, but for the first time found myself thinking the doctor is a bit creepy around Bobbie!

I remember thinking this even when I watched it as a kid, even more so watching it as an adult!

I don't know how many times I've seen the film, but for the first time this afternoon I thought this too!

Well, everyone’s a bit creepy around Bobbie in the novel, including the narrator, who is always banging on about how much he/she loves her.

I watched the 1970 film for the first time today and the doctor gave me the total creeps. When he invited Bobbie to go for a drive it reminded me of the "Charlie says" don't get in cars with strangers ads.
