Author: billpeter from Malaysia

I think you'll find that it isn't. It's an almost perfect portrayal of the effects of narcissism. The David Farrah character clearly takes great delight in withholding his "charms" from Deborah Kerr's character and Sister Ruth. Most, or many, male narcissists treat women sadistically by withholding their "favours" - affection and/or sex. There are articles that I'd like to link to, but IMDb stops this by censoring links as words that are "too long". However, with a bit of research I hope that you will agree with me. I agreed with you until I was pointed in the correct direction. It makes The Black Narcissus a far more interesting and rewarding film.
