I wasn’t particularly drawn to see the movie Twilight, but having finally seen it lately, I must say I was completely drawn to it for two reasons. One is as Edna said in her  post, the power to ally youth and depth, that teenagers like Bella and Edward, have the ability of deep feelings and a power of love that can last forever (though I am skeptical given Edwards request that ends 2nd episode). The second reason I liked Twilight was mentioned in other posts, the holding back on sexuality. I think that there are two ways of making people feel sexually aroused. You have the option to bring sexuality to the forefront, with many naked and sex scenes, or alternately, bring forward the strong sexual desire and the inability of resolving it. This lack of resolution emphasizes the sexuality through our feeling of the lack, which ultimately results in accentuating the sexual power on us. I find today’s vampire appealing in his being a combination between good and bad, deep and shallow, ready for true love’s sacrifice as well as egotistical indulgence.
