I actually was having an off moment or something and didn't notice the rape metaphor, but went home and promptly read a review that pointed it out, and I agree.

I LOVED Maleficent, by the way.

Sorry about the awful drivers! That is really bizarre and super stressful sounding. Where/when I learned to drive, you couldn't tell if someone was a learner (plus the it was a rural area with lots of wide, flat, easy-driving roads). And even then it's plenty stressful!
