« on: November 16, 2005, 07:32:25 PM »Another thought just occured to me, in those bedroom scenes where they're kissing passionately, when he breaks away from her at last, he seems almost ashamed that he was kissing her. I think he even apoligizes to her, but it's been awhile since I've watched 1795. Anyone remember this?
I think when he pulls away he is ashamed of his reaction to Angelique, he even admits to her "I admit you are difficult to resist, I lost control of myself for a moment," so I think that does show that he was afraid/ashamed of the feelings Angelique brought out in him.....
Hi, Miranda. It's nice to see you.
He did apologize to Angelique and seemed ashamed that he got carried away (he turned his back to her... and actually, he walked so far into the corner when he turned away that it looks like he was giving himself a "time out," lol ).

but the ironic part is that once all the hatred he felt for her was gone it had masked a lasting attraction that blossomed into love.
Masked a lasting attraction? If he hadn't felt lust for Angelique, he would never have behaved as he did in Martinique and in the scene in the servants' quarters that BuzzH described. I seriously question that he held onto any of that physical attraction when it's what set off the chain of events that led to her punishing him through the centuries.
Barnabas'Bride perfectly stated my feelings for what occurred at the end of 1840. I question that he could get over Angelique's brand of punishment so easily.
