In Nan you have the perfect example of why women are seen as evil seducers. Eve who tricked Adam and got us all tossed out of paradise. She won't have an abortion but sees lying and ruining 2 other people's lives as not a sin. I see that as more immoral especially as it was wilfully premeditated. I'd send her straight to hell, no redemption.
I am not cutting jack slack, eve is the only one with any sense. And nan started this when she went looking to marry that man. Even though both men are idiots, she is a bitch for manipulating the situations and helping everyone including herself get screwed.
I agree. Nan was stuck in a bad situation, she had to think about herself and her baby. She made a bad choice, but she didn't have very many options. She could have ended up in one of the Magdalene laundries. There she would have had her baby stolen from her and then a life of convent slavery and abuse.
i dont dislike nan as much as everyone else.. what she did was cruel/mean, but she was in a desperate situation. she just got played by simon, so she played jack. besides, jack slept with her willingly
@missineichen I agree....she was pretty much backed into a corner and so she chose the best of the lot - I don't agree with it though - but ppl should stop cutting Jack so much slack, Benny included! What's she playing at saying "poor jack"...he acted like a monumental prick. He was supposed to love here....where was his bleeding loyalty??
@LondonCityGirlMag exactly! nan, jack & simon are all equally culpable. the only innocent person is benny. it's not as if Nan raped Jack! so people ought to also dish out the insults to simon & jack too lol
8:18 I love Geraldine's acting!! Her eyes just flashed with so much recognition and anger towards Nan it was PERFECT :) It was as if her eyes were saying, "Caught you snakey b*tch!"
I've read the book, there's a lot of differences from the book and the movie. Nan's not a childhood friend of benny and eve, they became friends at university. But I'm still happy to watched this movie, I really fancied jack and benny...I wish I could get a jack of my own.
That window would not have done that to her arm. I punch my entire arm through a window when I was drunk once, and only then did it look like Nan's.... Such bad effects :P
I always hate the man in movies when he cheats and in real life...but i don't hate Jack. He thinks he is doing the right thing by marrying Nan. And he was freaking drunk and lonely. No, no excuses, fuck cheaters, but I pity the kid.
poor Bennie is so naive. It never occurs to her that Nan did this on purpose. I'm not saying I feel sorry for Jack, but this was before men realized women could be vicious predators. He wouldn't be falling for that today.
this is the best part that ive been waiting for....it looks just the same as i have imagined in the book.. that serves her right.... i hatre the both of them......!!!!!i love eve she.s such a good friend...
She meant to get pregnant. It just never occured to her that the rich guy wouldn't marry her. What an idiot! At that point, however, she should've just taken responsibility and not put her own needs above her friend's happiness. She's self serving.
@shazzqsong you do know that protection was illegal in ireland to the 1960's this is based in 1957 there was no such thing as protection in ireland it wasnt her fault
@leontia123 No I didnt know that. Thanks for the info. But its true that she shouldnt have dragged Jack into her problems, plus Im sure as everyone else who's commented on here will agree, she is manipulative and a bad friend.
poor benny was in denial and this bitch nan would show up with flowers i would have fucked her up with those flowers...um hm eve shut that bitch down lol
A lot of scene is change and not being included in the movie. Its better in the book. Like the how benny and eve became friends in benneys birthday. How they grow up together. Accident happen in their 1st week in Dublin for college. Thats the time they meet nan because she is part of the accident and jack the one help them in hospital. Then nan introduce them to the others like aidan, brian, jonny, sean and Carmen, Sheila and rosemary and others. heather, eve little cousin
@Readalwaysthelabel yes Eve is gorgeous! Doesn't she remind you of Sally in the Nightmare Before Christmas in the scene where Benny is crying to her? I've always thought that hah
They married but they stayed away from the others for a long time. In the end they finally come back, but the two of them are sort of outsiders, while Benny is happy with another boy. She hasn't forgiven Jack because she already did once before when he betrayed her with a girl from England ... he betrayed her with Nan lots of times in the book, not only once.
no they didn't marry...in the book, she doesn't take him back...I kinda like both endings...a rare time I liked both the book and the movie, even though they don't totally agree.
Sure, I understand WHY Nan did what she did, but it doesn't make it OK. She was arrogant, thinking she can use people n hurt them n everything will be OK Even n Benny were her friends. Nan was an opportunist. She was thinking only of herself & not even much at all! She should have known - like Eve said - that Simon would NEVER marry her.
As for Jack, like I said, I'm glad in the book Benny DID not take him back. What he did was immature and he needed to learn that lesson.
I totally agree. In the movie, they made both Jack and Nan way more sympathetic than they are in the book. In the book, Nan doesn't even really feel bad about what she did; and Jack is SUCH a jerk, too. The way he is in the movie, yeah I'm glad Benny forgave him eventually, but in the book, he cheats on her repeatedly, so he really didn't deserve to be forgiven. Still, the movie and book are good for different reasons. :)
Nan is SCUM and if i was eve i would have stabbed her with that knife and let her bleed to death... and they had alot of nerve showing up to that party. Jack and Nan.!!!
You're wrong about Nan. She is a girl who was brough up By a wallflower for a mother and a bully for a father. She saw an opportunity to advance herself in Simon. She planned her pregnancy for him, but she never taught he would leave her. Jack is a respectable young man, who, no matter what, will look after her. I feel really sorry for her.
In Nan you have the perfect example of why women are seen as evil seducers. Eve who tricked Adam and got us all tossed out of paradise. She won't have an abortion but sees lying and ruining 2 other people's lives as not a sin. I see that as more immoral especially as it was wilfully premeditated.
