"what do you want for christmas?"
me:
All of yall who are sexualizing these boys (and YES that includes the show) are evil as hell. You are sexualizing actors who are portraying two REAL RAPE VICTIM'S STORY. You are calling the actors sexy while they are playing a role that revolves around them being brutally sodomized. They bled and you think it's okay to sexualize them? One was hospitalized for damage to his throat from constant rape and you think it's okay to horny post about them? Never talk about them again. I hope to GOD you never get assaulted and some creep makes an incesty horny show about your story. As Tyra Banks once said, "LEARN FROM THIS"
I admit the only reason I began to watch “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story” is the preview that included Nicholas Chavez getting out of the pool, dripping wet in a speedo, and walking that incredible physique toward the viewer. I watched the series because of the performances of the two young men, Chavez and Cooper Koch. Despite the presence of Oscar Winner Bardem (whose Jose Menendez had a haircut as bad as the one in “No Country for Old Men”) and Oscar nominee Sevigny, the two young men delivered stellar performances.
Many on this forum have spoken of Koch’s performance in episode 5; for me, though, his performance in the last two episodes represented a master class in acting as he conveyed the raw emotions - anger, frustration, resignation - of someone who comes to realize the grave situation in which he finds himself. As I watched it, I kept thinking about Barbara Stanwyck’s final scene in the “Thorn Birds.” His confrontation with his brother in the last episode is the scene that stays with me. Kudos to both young men, as Koch could not have performed the way he did without Chavez performing the way he did.
Monsters
I watched Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. I believe that in all of this, Erik was the victim. He was allegedly sexually abused by by his father; allegedly sexually abused by his brother; ignored (another form of abuse) by his mother. Since then he has been tethered to his brother and the two have been treated as equal, when Lyle had the upper hand. He was older, probably stronger with a more dominant personality. Lyle seems to have been the one spearheading the spending sprees, planning the book and the movie, even telling the story; planning the escape and, if Abramson is to be believed, the one who fired the kill shots.
If, as they say abusers have a certain degree of control over their victims, why was not more consideration given to the control Lyle had over Erik?
