#gellert grindelwald
You know what breaks me?
In SoD Gellert approaches Albus and he makes clear that he WANTS his presense. But until the very end of the movie he does not show his vulnerability. He flirts, he shows irritation when things don’t go his way, he retaliates with bigoted comments, but until the ‘who will ove you now Dumbledore?’ he does not open up about his feelings; not even when Albus says that he was in love with him, which Gellert simply acknowledges as a fact. On the other hand Albus is very open about his emotions. He does not hide his vulnerability. But he witholds physical intimacy.
When we reach the peak of the duel, with the sound of their heartbeats and their hands over each other’s hear, Gellert’s eyes fall on the hands because he is given the touch that he’s been deprived of. On the contrary, Albus is fixed on Gellert’s face because he finally sees the other man’s honest yearning unfiltered and without any pose and pretenses.
After their hands drop, Gellert steps forward trying to close the space between them, still focused on touch and proximity. Albus steps back, but he still can’t take his eyes off Gellert’s vulnerable expression. This is not what REALLY happens as the actors perform, in the sense that the shots we see of the characters’ faces are not the result of a linear take, but in the final product Albus blinks ONCE in the span of one minute because he can’t stop taking in Gellert’s face. I’m telling you that’s NOT normal. I can’t stay unblinking for that long. These two have compromised me emotionally.

“I have experimented; I have pushed the boundaries of magic further, perhaps, than they have ever been pushed — ”
“Of some kinds of magic,” Dumbledore corrected him quietly. “Of some. Of others, you remain … forgive me … woefully ignorant.”
For the first time, Voldemort smiled. It was a taut leer, an evil thing, more threatening than a look of rage. “The old argument,” he said softly. “But nothing I have seen in the world has supported your famous pronouncements that love is more powerful than my kind of magic, Dumbledore.”
“Perhaps you have been looking in the wrong places,” suggested Dumbledore.

Gellert: “Kill me, then, Voldemort, I welcome death! But my death will not bring you what you seek… there is so much you do not understand…“

Albus: “That which Voldemort does not value, he takes no trouble to comprehend. Of house-elves and children’s tales, of love, loyalty, and innocence, Voldemort knows and understands nothing.”

At last he said, ‘Grindelwald tried to stop Voldemort going after the wand. He lied, you know, pretended he had never had it.’
Dumbledore nodded, looking down at his lap, tears still glittering on the crooked nose. ‘They say he showed remorse in later years, alone in his cell at Nurmengard. I hope that it is true. I would like to think he did feel the horror and shame of what he had done. Perhaps that lie to Voldemort was his attempt to make amends … to prevent Voldemort from taking the Hallow …’
‘…or maybe from breaking into your tomb?’ suggested Harry, and Dumbledore dabbed his eyes.
“tell the world, Johnny, tell them ‘I Johnny Depp, a man, I’m a victim too of domestic violence’ and see how many people believe or side with you”
