Sex scandals are often the twin sisters of powerful people, including CEOs, lawmakers, and presidents. The movie Babygirl shows this through Nicole Kitman, a CEO who finds herself irresistibly drawn to Samuel, an intern who sees her true self. The film looks at their complicated relationship, showing the vulnerabilities and temptations that accompany positions of power.
To be honest, I fail to see Nicole Kitman as a CEO in the movie. It’s hard to believe that she would personally involve herself in the company’s internship programme. How can a CEO be so naive as to form an emotional connection with an intern? This situation reminds me of Bill Clinton, who famously engaged in an extramarital relationship with an intern, which dominated the headlines. While the intern may not have been conventionally attractive, she was perhaps more accessible to his needs.
I’ve observed married men attempting to flirt with women in the workplace, and another man seeking out “fun” cautiously. The label of “married” can create a mental barrier, yet it doesn’t always prevent individuals from betrayal.
The movie Nova and Alice also explores the theme of affairs developing during a tour. Chemistry ignites between two people, even if one is in a stable relationship. Such relationships can sometimes feel mundane, lacking excitement and spontaneity. It’s difficult to determine if stepping outside a stable relationship is inherently wrong.
Ultimately, a true partner is someone who supports you when you’re unwell, and that support is the most important aspect of any relationship.
