Mostly because of author Stephanie Meyer’s own religious beliefs, some people have plucked from this confused marriage plot a message about abstinence, but it’s really not that simple. Even though he doesn’t actually seem to want to: what brooding, tortured Edward Cullen actually wants is of no interest to the plot of Twilight, ever. So, apparently, she is mainly marrying him because this is some kind of loophole that will mean them having sex.
However, for some reason, if they get married Edward will have to have sex with her because it will be their honeymoon. But he won’t turn her into a vampire, which would make the sex okay, because that would be wrong for reasons unclear. Okay, look, Edward cannot have sex with Bella because he is a vampire, and vamp-on-human sexy times will probably kill her, but Bella really wants to have sex with him because he is so sparkly. Bella’s exact motivations for marrying Edward are, well, confused. It’s as if, after so long a staring at sparkly vampire Edward ( Robert Pattinson), Bella’s body is finally up for grabs.Īnd it starts with the most traditional commodification of the female body: a wedding. So we get a sequence where Bella – who up until this point had barely removed her hoodie onscreen – fumbles her way through the shaving off bits of body hair and considers wedding night lingerie. She’s a woman now, and this film is concerned with her attempts to perform femininity. It’s now chapter four of Gothic romance juggernaut Twilight and its protagonist, Bella, is growing up. Twilight: Breaking Dawn is essentially the point at which the Twilight franchise leaps off a cliff and, just before you ask, Edward is not around to catch it
