Did you feel sorry for or feel no remorse for Annie Wilkes? I felt sorry for her all the way through the film even after the hobbling scene, she was very misunderstood and just needed mental help.

I guess you should have a little pity for a character that crazy.

To me that is what truly makes a terrific horror/suspense type character and movie - when you feel for the "bad guy". That book and movie were both great - Kathy Bates is excellent in that role. Another good role she plays in a Stephen King story/movie is "Dolores Clayborne". There are so many other good movies in which you are made to feel for the villain - any animal ones, like Jaws, King Kong, etc. but also "Hand that Rocks the Cradle" is a good example - woman loses husband, unborn child and life as she knows it and wants revenge. Movies like that make you want to root on the bad and good guys.

At the begining I can't blame her because she saved the writer "James Caan" but after that I didn't feel sorry for her othewise I wanted the writer to kill her as fast as he could but anyway she was an increadable actress in this movie and all that diserved the oscar becuase it was also a great story .

I felt a bit more sorry for the writer who was hobbled with a sledgehammer. A little pain involved there.

No way, she was far to friendly with a sledgehammer besides she got to do her thing with Kate and Leo and Titanic a few years later so I felt sorry for her having to listen to Miss Dion and that end of the movie premier

yeh i felt really sorry for her as she was mentally ill and could not control what she did. she was just showing her emotions(but a bit over the top) it wasnt her fault she had the problems she did. it was a great film and i mean of course she is made out to be the bad guy but she just wanted something solid...she saw her chance and grabbed it.

I had no sympathy for the character Annie Wilkes. Yeah she needed to be locked up, and be on sedatitives for the rest of her life..But she was a mass murderer if you recall...

How often do we feel a bit of pity for the bad guy. More often then you think. It is often life circumstance that make the bad guy bad. Society compless us to feel anger when often there is room for pity. Why analaze a charcter as totally bad when she has no control over her emotions on many levels. People should feel pity for a woman who is so unhindged that her actions are not under her own control.

No pity for Annie-she just wanted the guy's book to come out the way she thought it should! And if you read the book, it's even better!
