Movie Proposal: Sebastian Flyte Vs. The World. In an alternate universe that contains both ragtime and e-mail, Sebastian must defeat Charles's seven evil exes... The plot culminates in Charles agreeing to stay with Sebastian despite Seabstian being unmotivated and unemployed.
Alcoholism was one of the biggest contributors to the destruction of the great friendship. I'm aware of the other forces that also tore apart the friendship but the friendship would have survived if Sebastian had not so clouded his judgement with alcohol. Sebastian would have dragged Charles away from the poisonous family except Sebastian was too drunk to do that.
@breadandbutterr He can't help him, Sebastian has shut him out and no one can help him now; if his mother had only left him alone he might have been OK and recovered.
@ericnfan What are you talking about. Sebastian is in extreme pain. And if anything the friendship is one-sided in favour of Charles not Sebastian. Charles wants Sebastian because of what Sebastian represents: Brideshead and the wealth, beauty, refinement which goes with that. Sebastian wanted Charles because Charles made him feel that he was important, needed, and had value. Now Sebastian has lost that. Charles is still getting what he wants.

Cordelia is SUCH a pain in the ass, obnoxious ugly girl, ugh.

@skylur44 I think Cordelia is delightful, and, so far, probably the closest thing to a decent human being in the family.

@lizclegg Ah, that's what makes the world interesting; differences of opinion. Later on in the story, however, she improvesd, IMO, toward the end.

Why doesn't Charles help him? He has become the family's friend, not Sebastians..

@breadandbutterr It's complicated. It has to do with the Catholic theme.

It's funny watching Charles and Julia in these earlier episodes knowing what will happen with them later
