00:00The story of Manuela and Garibaldi seemed like one of those strong, predestined loves,
00:06capable of overcoming every obstacle.
00:09So much so that, even knowing how things turned out in reality,
00:13we watched the couple with a little spark of hope that fiction might make it different.
00:18But Garibaldi, for a man who seemed such a warrior, gave up on Manuela far too easily.
00:25All it took was her uncle throwing in his face that his niece was delicate and wasn't made for war,
00:32and Garibaldi quit and left her behind.
00:37Was he really so dumb that he couldn't see that from the very first time he laid eyes on her?
00:44He tried to teach her how to shoot for a grand total of two minutes,
00:48and then concluded that she would never stop being a delicate maiden,
00:52made for love, but never for war.
00:58Garibaldi chose love based on convenience,
01:01because it was so easy to love someone as similar to him as Anita.
01:05He didn't have to change anything in his life, nor sacrifice anything.
01:10She followed him, and he could keep being exactly who he was.
01:15Manuela was willing to make sacrifices,
01:18but Garibaldi's love couldn't get past the barrier of his comfort zone.
01:22I developed such a grudge against him that at one point in the miniseries,
01:27I was already rooting for Manuela to genuinely give Joachim a chance.
01:32In the end, Manuela was so made for war
01:35that she spent her entire life carrying a lost battle inside herself,
01:40and died alone.
01:41I was going to move to the next scene,
01:42I want her to leave you at the next scene in the mentioned sound.
