One Of My Pet Subjects

[ithildin]

I've been reading through a lot of the forum where the two writers of the the POTC movies hang out. The following is a comment by Ted Elliot. It's not a spoiler, though the thread it comes from is. So if you want to read the whole spoilery bit, go here. But the comment/question itself is something I've talked about in the past.

Here's a concept:

Is it possible for a relationship between a man and woman, even a man and a woman who are attracted to each other and have great on-screen chemistry, to have value to each of them and be important to their development as human beings *without* a romantic/sexual component?

Yes!

Yes, and the look he gives her says so much. There are many more awesome examples of that throughout that movie. The first movie as well though. He certainly does his bit for her character arc in that movie.
