102 Blog Entry 9: Stardust
One archetype from the Pearson system I've noticed occurring a lot throughout the film Stardust was the lover archetype. The love Tristan believed he had for the girl whom he has crushed on forever, started off his peculiar adventure to capture a star so she can marry him. He thought he loved her so much that proving it to her by bringing her a star would bring him everything he ever dreamed of when it came to relationships. But, the thing with love is, it's unconditional. Love shouldn't be something one has to prove with the use of materialistic objects. When Tristan finally does capture the star who ends up being a woman named Yvaine, Tristan realizes she's the one she is falling for and not his original crush. Yvaine shares her own experience observing love from the skies and explains how jealous she is of humanity's capability to love and receive love. Throughout Tristan's adventure to bring Yvanie to his beloved, Tristan protects Yvanie from evil witches who want the star for their own personal vanity agendas. Tristan and Yvanie share feelings of love throughout the entire adventure and it is proven when Yvanie shined so brightly and killed the witch who was trying to kill her and her newly beloved Tristan. Love gives people motivation to do crazy things, without love what are we all doing what we're doing?
good pick i chose the same, nice way to explain it. I agree with you that Tristan should not have to prove his love to Victoria, she should just tell him she is not in love or doesn't have a chance with her.
