Chris, Bart, and Jory: the Saddest Theme in the Flowers of the Attic Film Series
I swear to you, all morality leaves my body when it comes to the Dollanganger siblings. (We're speaking the VC Andrews screen adaptions, as the books are wayyyy too messy for me to make excuses for the utter sexual exploitation of Cathy and her rejection of consent) Cathy and Chris had to fight through hell with tooth and nail, and where I absolutely am disgusted by the incestuous content presented in these films, its purely because they have been clouded in so much darkness that I just want them to be happy.
Which makes the judgment (not that those who judge don't deserve to judge, it is fucking gross under any other circumstance), so much harsher, because the characters that judge them through the duration of the series didn't experience the endless trauma Chris and Cathy did. They bonded through the things only they fought through together, and Chris was more than what he was to Cathy, which was why it was seamless for him to father Cathy's children. Though it hurt him to see her love other men and bed other men, Chris was there from the second both Jory and Bart were born, raising them, providing for them, and most of all, loving them. It is something in the film series that Chris doesn't get enough recognition, because Chris sure as hell didn't have to do this much for Cathy, but because he loved her, he loved Jory and Bart, too.
Which leads to my most hated part of the film series. How Bart completely throws all of Chris' love in his face, and I know it's a driving plot point, but it's so unfair to Chris with all he's fought through to also be betrayed by one of his sons. It's bonkers to me. Chris will never not deserve better. He deserved to live happily with Cathy, and embrace his sons lovingly, and create more of a home that was warm and comfortable. Chris Dollanganger bore a majority of the hurt for his siblings, and still was walked all over for providing, loving and protecting his family. This is the man that gives in to Jory's grandmother's blackmail so he wouldn't lose him, and would rather die than refer to Bart as his "stepson."
Christopher Dollanganger in the films >>>>

honestly garden of shadows is SUCH a good prequel in my opinion. like it is it's own book, but it adds even more depth to all the books before it. it's also completely fucking wild, too. like.... completely off the rails. I love it. I think it may be my favorite out of the series

my favorite thing tho is that bart is right! we should all be horrified by cathy and chris! it’s definitely DEFINITELY their trauma bonding them and their lives were never going to be safe and easy together (and it wasn’t!). it does mess him up. all those marriages and kids and deaths and family secrets truly affect him! but but but, and i hate saying but, he’s such a shit! it’s so easy to root for chris and cathy lol
