love is blind

For those of you that haven't seen the movie Chicken Run, Mr. and Mrs. Tweedy are two of the main characters and they have striking similarities to Macbeth and Lady Macbeth (in personalities). Mr. Tweedy is afraid of Mrs. Tweedy and therefore does whatever she wants him to, not out of love, but out of fear. So does Macbeth. He views her as a superior, in a way, and the audience views her as a parasite that the world would be much better without. The audience can't comprehend why Macbeth would listen to her, and I don't think he does because "love is blind"; I think he might think he loves her, but in reality he's just scared shitless. Much like Mr. Tweedy.
