I think they tried to infer that consentual part of it with her gripping the altar cloth, I think that was them trying to denote passion, but they sure didn't include the rest of what was spoken.

And maybe because it wouldn't have mattered in the end, had they added that part, since we've evolved to understand that that 'no means no' and you stop as soon as you hear it. I think it's safe to assume that people may have reacted even more negatively to that encounter had she said no, he continued anyway, and then she ended up begging him to **** her. That's a risky message to put on tape, even if the setting is in a brutal pseudo medieval setting, and I think there would have been outrage over that, too.

Hard scene to watch in any case.

So you don't think a guy who wrote about a brother and sister ****ing next to their dead son isn't joking when he said I wouldn't even write that ****ed up stuff. I think it was a total joke.
