quote:
ORIGINAL: MasterLark
In "Batman Begins," actor Liam Neeson plays the role of Henri Ducard (Ra's al Ghul). In that role, Ducard is the mentor to Bruce Wayne. He first finds Bruce Wayne in a Chinese prison and offers him a "path" and proceeds to train him and enable him to face his fears. Setting the plot details aside, the manner in which Liam Neeson presents himself strikes me as akin to the presence of a Master or Dom. Self confident, wise, intelligent, self aware, skilled, sensitive in his own way, and more. A magnetic personality in control (flawed, not perfect). Stirring, not shaken.
Can you name a character or actor in other movies in which you see the qualities of a Master or Dominant displayed?
No, I can't - unless it's a movie *about* d/s or m/s.
All of the qualities that people list as "qualities of a master or dominant" are, to me, just qualities of a good person or a good leader. And s-types are capable of being good people and leaders too, so...that doesn't work for me.
Plus, d-types can be bad people and not-leaders.
This is about relationships - there are no "dominant qualities" or "submissive qualities".
