Ripping a cruel page, dark side of love and relationships, intimidating pyramid
It's so easy to jump the gun and label this film as sexy and sacrilegious. But to dump "Sins" among the cheesy stuff is to miss the whoop for the spree.
"Sins" is certainly not a sinful pretext for gratuitous sex and nudity.
Ripping a cruel page out of the newspapers, writer-director Vinod Pande has reconstructed a dramatic and often shocking tale of forbidden love between a Catholic priest and a junior disciple.
Pande ("Ek Baar Phir", "Yeh Nazdeekiyan", "Ek Naya Rishta" and "Sach") is never a stranger to the dark side of love and relationships.
In "Sins" too, he doesn't stop at the bedroom door, but manages to build an intimidating pyramid of desperate passion between Father Williams (Shiny Ahuja) and Rosemary (Seema Rahmani).

Could you please explain to me the emboldened parts?
I guess "dark side of" "negative side of" but can't guess of the other parts. But I know "intimidate" means "to threaten someone" in general.
