dream_weaver Posted October 2, 2010 Report Share Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) Who is your favorite Atlas Shrugged couple? I know John Galt is the ideal man and everything but at the end I wanted Dagny to stay with Francisco because he'd waited so long for her. I included evil couples as well just to be democratic. I would have said: I included evil couples as well, just to be multicultural. A couple I would have liked to see was Cheryl and Eddie Willers. Two casualties of a war beyond their understanding, they were nevertheless good and decent people. Agreed as well. Their respective demise in the story were both disturbing sad.

Eddie's Fan Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I'd vote for Eddie and Cheryl too. That would have been great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JASKN Posted October 20, 2010 Report Share Posted October 20, 2010 I always thought Hank and Dagny's most reflected a "real" relationship; they sincerely enjoyed each other's company and shared lots of concrete values. Dagny's and Galt's was too fantasy-like, and I never believed that a man, even Francisco, could be alright around a woman he loved while she was with another man (Hank, too).

Jolie Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 I'd say- definitely Dagny and Hank. It's really amazing how they change each other's lives and ways of thinking and they learn from each other- as opposed to Galt who doesn't need life lessons from anyone. I also have a huge, huge deal of admiration for the way Hank took Dagny falling in love with Galt. (So I guess I'm biased on this one because my ex-boyfriend is now my best friend... I guess I learned a lot about how to deal with it from Rearden's character.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
