Misery questions??

[wendymartt]

HEY ALL,

I have watched misery thousands of times, it is my all time favorite movie, but i cant help but wonder..would you all have done anything different if you were in paul sheldon's shoes?? This film amazes me, how much he has to bare just to keep calm (most of the time) so i wonder what would you do if you was in that situation?? would you go along with annie?? let me know

[sam peebles]

Yeah, I woulda stayed home one more day and not risked driving in the blizzard. Wouldn't have made for a very interesting book, though.

I can safely say I would pretty much go along with anything she wanted.
We all saw how things turned out when she was in a cockadoodie temper.
I would not want to be on the receiving end of that...I quite like using my legs thankya very muchly!

hi there, i liked the movie misery too and i like kathy bates, she is a very funny person because i have seen her in movies and
she is in misery so she plays a good part as annie wilkes i believe. well anyway, i enjoyed the movie now i got the book. so
hope everyone is well. love your movies, stephen king.

Well, it has been a LONG time since I read and watched Misery.

I think if I were in his shoes I would have surely evoked a stronger pseudo-Stockholm syndrome where I would absolutely show my gratitude to her by pretending to fall in love with her. Maybe even..."do the deed"... with her to get the upper hand the WHAM make her swallow her own teeth....
WHAT?? You asked.

I would have gone along with Annie's wishes too because like Ally88 I love my legs too. I would not have done the sneaking around while Annie was away. I would have waited until I was really strong enough to send that raving lunatic to hell. Now I know I 'd make a very boring character.

I would have complied but I would have also been thinking fervently on how to escape the hell hole.

Slowly build on Annie's theories that she was being watched. Tell her I had a plot point that she would like that I didn't want anyone secretly listening to hear, come close--I have to whisper--meanwhile building my back and arms with bodyweight exercises. I have a big secret, Annie, but I'm sure that you will find it in your heart to forgive me, because I did it all for you. I have extra pages that all those listeners know nothing about. I want you to be my personal editor. Tell me if this idea works... The fifth time (or whenever I had her hooked) I'd give her perspective an immediate 180-degree rotation.

With a crunch.

I would have complied while all along plotting how to kill that heifer!!! I don't know what good that would have done becuz she was removing parts of him for no logical reason!!! She was cockadoodie crazy!!!

[GNTLGNT]

I would have repeatedly wet the bed. No there's no strategy there, I'm just tellin' ya what I would've done...
