On the Star Wars scale, Attack of the Clones is alarmingly horny. Return of the Jedi is not
But I was about 11 years old, and I loved it—mainly because Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman suck face a lot on screen., Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala are hopelessly in love, but because Anakin is training to be a Jedi, and Jedis cannot marry, they are forced to hide it from the world. You can see this conflict on their faces because they stare at each other for half the movie, both clearly in agony.
“I’m in agony,” Christensen tells Portman, as they sit side by side near the glow of a fireplace, having already shared a kiss. The increasing flirtation between them makes it obvious they want more. The plot didn’t matter much to me at that point. I did not know that Anakin would one day become Darth Vader, or that when Padmé first meets Anakin, he is a child—and in retrospect, I was probably able to enjoy the movie more because I didn’t know these things. What really entranced me was the idea that forbidden love is the sexiest love, especially if you are on the edge of puberty.convinced me that more movies should have kissing in them.
