People take from what they read what they wish to see. If you think that that is what you saw, then so be it-but in doing so, be discrete. If you have read the books, then maybe you would understand the reason why many people here are a bit 'ruffled' by your statement. <P>honestly, I watched the movie before I read the books, because I could never sit tight through the whole thing. Trust me, if you crack open the book, you will realize the nature behind the relationships between men. Although, some people, after reading the books, like to write on relationships that the characters held, the have no more basis than their own meandering ideas. <P>Sincerely,<BR>Daegwenn<P>

"And still of a winter’s night, they say, when the wind is in the trees,
When the moon is a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas,
When the road is a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor,
A highwayman comes riding—
Riding—Riding—
A highwayman comes riding, up to the old inn-door.
Over the cobbles he clatters and clangs in the dark inn-yard.
And he taps with his whip on the shutters, but all is locked and barred.
He whistles a tune to the window, and who should be waiting there
But the landlord’s black-eyed daughter,
Bess, the landlord’s daughter,
Plaiting a dark red love-knot into her long black hair"
Highwayman
