<![CDATA[Questions.]]>Archived from the IMDb Discussion Forums — Storytelling

Why was Selma Blair’s character’s boyfriend so nasty to her after the teacher told him his story was bad? She told him it was good. Was it because she lied to him about it? Also, why did he automatically assume she wanted to sleep with her professor, just because she didn’t defend his story to her classmates? And why did he think she was tired of him just because she wasn’t sweating? He didn’t seem sweaty, either.

Yeah, I remember that he said, “I knew it was sh—, but like an idiot, I believed you.”

Even Marcus knew his story was bad.

That could be right.

Maybe she was too afraid of what her professor would say if she defended his story.

I remember he said, “I sure didn’t hear you voice your opinion when it mattered.”

And she didn’t say anything in his defense.

Yeah, everyone in that scene was shocked by what he said.

I don’t think she knew how the professor would critique his story.

She did kind of humiliate him by suggesting he read it.

He just felt bad that he was lied to by her.

Welcome to the Todd Solondz world. Nobody sugarcoats their words in his movies.

Yes, the professor sure didn’t sugarcoat his words.

It was probably because he felt embarrassed that his story was torn up in front of his classmates. I agree with the last part of your post. He didn’t look sweaty to me at all.
