Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Passion is one of the best Buffy episodes I have seen. It starts with a voice over from Angelus which manages to capture both the passion of his feelings for Buffy, whether it be hatred from Angelus, or love from Angel, and the menace which builds throughout the episode to the shocking method Angelus uses to ensure he stays without a soul. In addition, the episode has an angle of vuyeuristim which adds to the menace of the whole episode. Angel has always had a tendancy to be laconic, with the result this episode gives a greater insight into the way he feels for Buffy and the way he thinks than anything we have seen or heard from him before.
The events in `Passion' and the emotional backlash they cause, make the story of the teacher and schoolboy lovers in `I Only Have Eyes for You' far more poignant than they would have been as a stand alone episode. The Buffy/Angel story mirrors the teacher/schoolboy love affair, and the role reversal with Buffy taking the role of the boy and Angel as the female teacher is an interesting twist. The whole episode is beautifully acted right through to the end when Buffy realises she can forgive and move on, and the revulsion Angelus feels over the emotions for Buffy the possession stirred within him.
These are two wonderful episodes, superbly written and beautifully acted.
