Raphina's Dad
I kind of got the feeling she was sexually abused by her dad when she mentioned how her mom was much prettier than her. Maybe I was reading too much into it?

shareI got the same vibrations as you regarding potential parental abuse. Why include that line about her mom being prettier .... She stated that he was an alcoholic and didn't seem to put off that he was "brown bread", so I'm guessing she was justifiably bitter about more than a father who drank too much.
shareYeah, I got that same vibe both times I saw it, and so did my friend when I took him to see it later on.
The camera also focused on Connor's face in response to what she said about her mother being way prettier. It's quite obvious that she was abused in some way, probably sexual.
I don't feel enough for you to cry.
Oh well.
Yes, and it also tied in with what Brendan was saying about Raphina having "daddy issues" and girls like that needing protection. You can see the wheels turning in Conor's mind trying to figure it all out, hoping to become her protector. Great scene.
sharereally adds richness to her backstory, too bad she didn't have a baby that died
shareWhat do you mean you got the feeling? She openly admitted she was abused. "Why did he want me when my mum was prettier". Not woolly to me
MY OTHER CAR IS WONDER WOMAN!!
Yup I agree with you. It was obvious.
