2. Scottie's obsession with recreating madeleine is very very disturbing, the lack of self worth on Judy's part is ridiculous, while Scottie's desire to make the woman that he loved is equally as disturbing. Judy is in love with Scottie but she shows no respect for herself by doing exactly what Scottie wants her to do. To make the situation even worse is that Judy knows that she has done Scottie wrong by conning him. Scottie on the other hand is too aggressive and it is very intimidating towards Judy, she has no say in the situations when Scottie is picking out the clothes for her to wear or when he is making her go up the stairs with him at the Spanish mission. The demands that Scottie has are borderline insane and it shows that he does not love Judy, he loves the thought of her being Madeleine. This is not a love story, it is as far from a love story as it can get, this movie depicts a man that fell in love and did everything he could do to bring back the memory that he had of her. And once Scottie has figured out what has been done, he leads Judy to her death; Scottie did not physically kill Judy, but he set the stage for it and the guilt that Judy had from conning Scottie overtook her and she jumped when a dark figure came through the door, almost as if death had come to collect the ghost that had emerged from the jade light.
