Hurt’s character in Children of a Lesser God is vaguely creepy, patronizing & paternalistic– constantly trying to teach her while making out with her & saying “I will take care of you.” Loved the scene at the party when he felt left out because he was the only hearing person there then had the nerve to say, “Wth is wrong with you tonight?” He didn’t want her to be a hearing person. He wanted to bring back the 50s.
