Every time those two are near each other there's some kinds
of unresolved sexual tension thingy going on. I totally agree- something is
up. - that hand on shoulder action is pretty intimate if you ask me!
Also I don't know too much about the true
backstory of star wars- but, where are shmi's other kids or at least the
brother that luke is raised with!?? Maybe there were consequences to their
little sneaky affair! ahemmm!
1.) An excerpt from and interview of actress Pernilla August
and Star Wars Insider magazine.
SWI:"Liam Neeson said you and he wished there had been some
more romance between your characters."
Pernilla August:"We do!"
SWI:"Do you personally wish there had been a kissing scene
between you and Liam Neeson in Episode I?"
Pernilla August:"Actually, I suggested it to George one day.
The goodbye scene. But it was more for fun."
SWI:"And what did he say?"
Pernilla August:"No, I'm sorry, I don't think it's that kind
of movie."
and some other interview-
"Liam Neeson says, "We're not talking about clothes being
thrown off. Just a hint of intimacy... We've got to keep the adults happy,
too," and it was apparent that
he lobbied for the various affectionate or comforting shoulder touches we
see in the movie, particularly the subtle caress he gives Shmi with
his thumb as he asks her if she will be all right just after breaking
the news of Anakin's freedom."
