While discussing the script, Larry compares Burton's idea to the legend of The Flying Dutchman. This legend foreshadows the relationship that will happen between Anna and Pale. The cursed sailor represents Pale and the woman who falls in love with him is Anna. The relationship between the sailor and Senta is complicated by the sacrifices each makes for the other. This mirrors what occurs between Pale and Anna at the conclusion of Act 2.
