I have watched Frankenstein dozens of times and it never bothers me to watch Boris Karloff accidentally drown the little girl. It bothers me more to watch the Monster become distraught when he realizes what he has done.

Now, I don't even watch the "don't text and drive" videos because I just know that there's going to be a baby or child hurt in them and I simply cannot stand it. We are so on the same page here. Great way to finish the sentence.
