365 Daysis aguilty pleasure romance moviefilled with unbelievable events , accidentally hilarious duologue , and very little genuine plot ; however , the story issues are n’t the ground why the film has attracted contention . Rather , the movie ’s word picture of Massimo ’s intervention of Laura — and her reaction to that treatment — have run some reviewer to condemn the movie for spiritualize domestic ill-usage and perpetuating Brassica napus finish .
365 Daystries to deliver titillating scenes that far too often cross the line between acceptable and unacceptable behavior . Massimo is more than a prevailing alpha male : he is actively a predator . Not only does Massio abduct Laura , but he often abuses her — both emotionally and physically . He infantilizes her , orders her around , and — despite his frequent claims of not being a monster , and that he wo n’t touch her unless she says yes — repeatedly grope , caresses , and broadly speaking manhandles Laura without her consent . As Hedy Phillips observe inPopsugar , the sexuality moral force this movie celebrates is deeply troubling : " The more TV shows and movies course with opprobrious kinship , the more it normalizes them , and the more mass think it ’s okay not just to abuse others but to stay in abusive relationships . " These fundamental interaction are by their very nature not consensual because Laura is being held against her will .
What is perhaps most disturbing about365 Daysis the manner by which the film frames Massimo ’s attimes horrifyingactions as sexually electrifying , implicitly excuse his abuse by suggesting that Laura really require it , and/or deserve his treatment . In one scene — which circumstantially echoesMatt Lauer ’s inappropriate intimate behavior — Massimo locks Laura in a room with him and refuse to let her leave , despite her repeated pleas . He then wriggle her onto a seam , bond her up spread bird of Jove so that he has " access code " to her , molests her , then forces her to learn him welcome unwritten sex from another woman . In another picture , after Laura rejects his sexual advances in the cascade and turns to leave , Massimo grabs her roughly by the neck and pull her violently towards him ; the non - diegetic euphony suggest the act is exciting , but the mental image would be more suitable to a horror film .
Unfortunately , despite it’s0 % Rotten Tomatoes score,365 Daysbecame one of Netflix ’s most - watched attribute shortly after its release . Hopefully , many hearing see through the moving-picture show ’s trashy thrills and recognize the toxic nature of Laura and Massimo ’s family relationship — otherwise , audiences can expect more tale like this in the future .
