He refers to Sebastian in idealistic terms such as “entrancing, with the epicene beauty which in extreme youth sings aloud for love” (Waugh 33). After an eventful night of Sebastian vomiting in his room, he sends Charles a bouquet of daffodils and invites Charles to lunch. This is the start of their friendship and he reminisces about their walk in the Botanical Gardens where physical contact took place; “[Sebastian] took my arm as we walked under the walls of Merton” (Waugh 36) and continued to be a very dominant action between the two. They become affectionate by sunbathing naked on the roof and when Charles is in the bathroom with Sebastian as he takes a bath (Waugh 100). This all begins the summer that Charles and Sebastian remain at Brideshead and is the start to where their friendship grows stronger. As their companionship flourishes, they are mostly alone together – “each so much bound up in the other that we did not look elsewhere for friends” (Waugh 124). Charles also recounts that while he was at Oxford, he did not have any interest in women at that time and only focused on the relationship he had with Sebastian. The last time Charles sees Sebastian at Brideshead, Sebastian is drunk and states that he does not want Charles there, eluding to the fact that their relationship will not work because Charles is not homosexual. The final time the two are together, Charles finds out that Sebastian is happily living with a new friend in Morocco and no longer has need for him. As they grow apart in two separate worlds, Charles states later in the novel that “never did I come alive as I had been during the time of my friendship with Sebastian” (Waugh 269), not during his marriage with Celia Mulcaster or even during his affair with Lady Julia
The first clip has Charles telling his wife that she is beautiful and that he adores her. Emily says that she wishes he didn’t spend as much time at work, foreshadowing the obstacle in their relationship that will eventually be their demise. She says this in a loving manner, showing that she wishes Charles would spend more time with her while understanding that work is important. Charles schedules his appointment later in the day just to spend some time with her. As the montage progresses, however, Charles begins to do less for her, and more for the company. He prioritizes things that he wants and sacrifices less, establishing his dominance over her. Welles uses this opportunity to not only show the fall of the relationship, but the change in Charles’ character. Charles becomes more power-hungry and less romantic as each clip spirals onto the next. By the fifth clip, Charles embodies a Hitler persona when he tells his wife that he will “tell the people what to think.” Charles is not actually becoming Hitler, but rather acting like a dictator and making all of the decisions by himself. On the sixth and final clip of the montage, Charles and Emily are sitting at the breakfast table in silence. This silence speaks louder than words. Kane has established his dominance over his wife, but at the cost of their love. Although he never truly found love, Kane tried searching for it many times in
