Tem uma cena do filme "Fim dos tempos" (The Happening, 2008), de M. Night Shyamalan, que fala sobre a teoria da moita. Não sei porquê, lembro quase nada do filme, mas um diálogo me marcou muito: o casal protagonista vai parar na casa de uma velha, e no meio da conversa a velha pergunta "Who's chasing whom?". Eles obviamente não entendem, "como assim quem está perseguindo quem?". A velha então explica, brilhantemente, a teoria da moita: entre o casal, os dois se revezam no papel de caça e caçador. Sempre tem um que está mais "correndo atrás" (mais inseguro, mais afim, mais na moita) e um que está mais "cool" (fora da moita, focado em outras coisas, indisponível), depende do momento.
Procurei muito, mas não consegui encontrar de jeito nenhum essa cena na internet. O máximo que consegui foi uma review do filme que fala sobre essa cena, a qual compartilho - parcialmente - abaixo:
"(...)Together, Wahlberg and Deschanel bring a quiet dignity to their characters. Their relationship is faltering and makes their way from place to place, seeking sanctuary. There’s something bizarrely childlike about both characters. Alma is charmingly mischievous and slightly flighty while Elliot brings a forced mild craze to himself, who, despite being a science teacher, is a long way from an embodiment of the rational. Conversation and interaction reveals that they have recently had major argument. Phone calls, and later a confession, brings to light Joey who Alma went out with recently and has been talking to since. Along their journey, at one stop, Mrs. Jones (Betty Buckley) asks them, “Who’s chasing whom?” This implies that Elliot’s and Alma’s relationship is one of imbalance rather than common center, of distance rather than union. When they are first introduced, there is a sense that she has just not been able to give up the idea of her single life. However, after Elliot, Alma, and Jess part ways with Julian and continue on together, Alma begins to step into a motherly role in which she actually puts Jess before herself because Julian tells her when he leaves Jess in her care, “Don’t take my daughter’s hand unless you mean it.” After Alma takes Jess’ hand, and she continues to hold it, the message is clear that when one enters into any relationship, and really mean it, one must not only recognize the value of life, but also the value of others.
