"When we saw Emily next, she had grown fat and her hair was turning grey." - narrator, A Rose For Emily
Emily immediately reminded me of Bathilda Bagshot from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (when she's actually a cover up for Voldemort's snake, Nagini) by the creepy way she acted. She seemed to evade people, just as Bathilda did when she wasn't actually herself. The real Bathilda was dead, and I think the real Emily partially died when her father died. She had a terrible time letting people go, which is why she held on to Homer's dead body until her death. She just crept around town and around her house. Granted, she never had a giant snake jump out of her body as Bathilda did. Other than that, the two are strikingly similar in my mind.
I sincerely hope you all watch this clip. If you didn't scroll back up and click play. Much appreciated.
