Cruel intentions why did sebastian die
With a few simple steps you can change your Netflix region to a country like Israel and start watching Israeli Netflix, which includes Cruel Intentions. He finds her and tells her he really is in love with her, and the two kiss before going back home to finally make love.
The next day, Kathryn offers herself to Sebastian since he has won the bet, but he no longer cares about it and only wants to be with Annette. However, Sebastian gets more than he bargained for as he attempts to woo Annette into his bed. Her complete disrespect for marginalized groups is not truly paramount to the overarching narrative, since her actions speak loudly enough on their own, so the offensive line could have easily been removed without detracting from the story.
Cruel Intentions can also rightly be criticized for its lack of cast diversity, as both the central cast and most of the supporting players are white. The one exception is the character Ronald, who, despite being a pre-Juilliard student who lives at the posh locale of 45th Street and Park Avenue, is made to suffer the ignorance of Mrs. Caldwell Christine Baranski. After she discovers that Ronald and Cecile have a budding romantic relationship, she confronts him by saying, "I got you off the streets and this is how you repay me?
My husband and I gave money to Colin Powell. Caldwell's biases in a way that is relevant to the plot, but even so, hearing her all-too-realistic racist remarks is still incredibly uncomfortable.
We're told he attended Manchester Prep School in New York before going to college in Kansas on a football scholarship.
Since Annette is from Kansas , he's suspected to be the secretive source of damaging intel that she has received about Sebastian before meeting him. But when that turns out not to be true, he's asked to go back to Annette and change the narrative with nice stories about Sebastian instead.
In the course of that conversation, he suggests that they have been close for a long time — even going so far as to say he considers her "like a sister" — but their connection makes absolutely no sense for two reasons. Not only has he apparently just moved to the area, while Annette has been there her whole life, but he also has zero credibility as a character witness since he refers to himself as "the Gregster," casually jokes about sexual assault and has a reputation for bravado as a "football stud.
Perhaps the most pernicious point in Cruel Intentions comes when Kathryn and Sebastian scheme to sully Cecile's reputation at her new school by "speed[ing] up her sexual awakening. As awful as the plot is, the execution is even more deplorable. Sebastian invites Cecile over under the guise of helping her draft a love letter to Ronald and proceeds to get her intoxicated with a Long Island Iced Tea which she does not know is alcoholic.
After that, he threatens to expose her for sneaking out to her mother unless she lets him give her "a kiss" and then proceeds to perform oral sex on her without permission. The next day, when she confides in Kathryn that she feels taken advantage of, Cecile is told she should be happy about what happened and seek out more sexual encounters with Sebastian.
In other words, Cecile not only endures sexual assault, but she is also then coerced into returning to her attacker's arms, which makes the scenes totally triggering and outrageous. The progression of Annette and Sebastian's romantic relationship is dizzyingly fast, to the point that it is hard to believe they are able to develop the deep, meaningful bond that supposedly unfolds.
Wanting revenge, he joins Kathryn in her plans to corrupt Cecile. Kathryn engineers Ronald's break-up with Cecile by informing Mrs. Caldwell of their flirtations; Mrs.
Caldwell quickly ends their affair. Sebastian, in turn, calls Cecile to his house, ostensibly to give her a letter from Ronald. Once at his house, Sebastian blackmails Cecile and performs oral sex on her. The next day, Cecile confides in Kathryn, who advises her to learn the art of sex from Sebastian so that she can make Ronald happy in bed. Meanwhile, Sebastian genuinely begins to fall in love with Annette, who returns his feelings but still keeps her defenses up.
Sebastian declares that Annette is a hypocrite, waiting for love but refusing to sleep with the guy that loves her. Confused and beaten by Sebastian's logic, Annette relents - but Sebastian, now feeling guilty, refuses her. Heartbroken and embarrassed, Annette flees his aunt's estate. Sebastian tracks her down and professes his love, and they consummate their feelings.
Kathryn offers herself to Sebastian the next day, since he has won the bet, but he refuses; his romantic focus is now on Annette. Kathryn shows a feeling of betrayal, and threatens his and Annette's reputation. Swayed by Kathryn's threat to ruin Annette's reputation, Sebastian coldly breaks up with Annette and returns to Kathryn. Kathryn, however, now refuses to sleep with him. After Sebastian tells Kathryn that he has arranged for Cecile and Ronald to be together, Kathryn reveals that she has known all along that he was truly in love with Annette, yet she manipulated him to give it up.
While Sebastian may have initially won the bet, she made him lose his first true love, and she Kathryn does not sleep with "losers. Sebastian realizes his mistake. After trying unsuccessfully to talk to Annette, he sends her his journal, in which he has detailed all his previous "conquests" but written his true feelings for Annette, hoping she will learn the truth for herself and forgive him.
Kathryn, meanwhile, informs Ronald of Sebastian's affair with Cecile; Kathryn also claims that Sebastian had hit her in a deleted scene Sebastian does hit her. A furious Ronald confronts Sebastian in the middle of the street and a fight ensues. Annette, in search of Sebastian, comes upon the fight and tries to stop it.
