Early in Fifty Shades Darker, heroine Anastasia Steele blankly stares at her former/current lover, Christian Grey, and says, “This isn’t a relationship; it’s ownership.” She says it like that’s a bad thing. Then, at 5,000 other points throughout the movie, Christian tells Anastasia she belongs to him, and Ana smiles.
