Too bad we have too much in common.
We might make a hell of a couple. |
You'd have to shave first. Yech!
The Sheriff didn't just accept a sexual bribe--he extorted sex out of Marion to save her loved ones. This is indeed dispicable act, scarcely different than rape. Marion is in the Tosca situation, though she chooses to go through with it rather than plunge a knife into her tormentor.
The Sheriff therefore is guilty of two things--extorting sex (virtually rape) and violating his duty. I think his guilt is the worst.
Robin acts like a jackass, but his furor is somewhat understandable. You can't help but feel betrayed if your S.O. sleeps with someone else, even under duress. But he's still a jerk.
Marion acts nobly, but, unfortunately, must partake in infidelity to do so. The circumstances make that a negligible infraction.
Little John not only commits no wrong, he does a noble thing by standing by Marion in the face of her being denounced by her lover. One could argue that his motives aren't entirely selfless (maybe he's wanted her all along), but we don't know that.
