In the first three Pirates of the Caribbean movies--Curse of the Black Pearl, Dead Man’s Chest, and At World’s Ends-- many of the familiar characters find themselves involved in making and breaking many deals and following established plots lines that the viewers have seen before. While the motivations of each character differs, they each choose to give up a piece of themselves--some figuratively, and others literally--to gain things they desire.

This allows the viewers to see them in a more selfless light in comparison to other characters within the movie. 
While their figurative deals with the devil may have not come to fruition, they still show that not all devils are supernatural and not all deals are fulfilled. ]]> 2018-10-12 01:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292004855 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292005900 In this scene, Jack Sparrow is forced to confront his devil at time of collection.

As romantic stories are wont to do, the couple makes their feelings clear to the audience well before establishing them with their love interest. With these two characters it is clear they are willing to give up pieces if not all themselves to preserve the other's well being. ]]> 2018-10-12 01:53:50 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292006078 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292007889 Much like her male counter part, Elizabeth makes the choice to place herself second to the safety and preservation of Will. Towards the end of the film, she is willing to marry Norrington so long as he could guarantee Will's safe return. ]]> 2018-10-12 02:06:35 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292007889 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292009835 While Jack Sparrow was making and breaking many deals in the first movie, the second movie holds his most impactful deal for both himself and other characters. While Jack willingly enters this deals with his devils, he is often unwilling to pay up his half of the bargain. ]]> 2018-10-12 02:19:02 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292009835 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292011105 Jack Sparrow is a man of self preservation. As a result, he often makes deals to get what he wants and attempts to break them when it is his time to pay his dues. This is seen on multiple occasions in the movie franchise. ]]> 2018-10-12 02:27:51 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292011105 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292113779 The song begins with the deal that was made with the First Brethren Court stating "The king and his men stole the queen from her bed and bound her in her bones." This refers to the binding of the sea goddess Calypso. In exchange for binding her, the men of the sea gained power it was no longer being controlled by her. The first brethren court made an agreement with Davy Jones that Calypso would not be released for the vengeance and havoc that she would unleash on the world. 
This song and the movie also helps the audiences better understand the archetype of a lover's betrayal. The views later learn that it was Davy Jones, the lover of Calypso, who told the court how to bind her. His betrayal is ultimately revealed at the end of the movie, when Calypso refused to aid him, and the Brethren Court, in instead she creates a vicious maelstrom that impedes both the Court's and Jones's cause. ]]> 2018-10-12 11:57:35 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292113779 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292115500 Following the opening credits of the film, the song is continued and elaborates on the background information given. ]]> 2018-10-12 12:03:28 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292115500 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292117574 In the movie, the song serves as a call to arms for the people of piratry. With the lines "The bell has been raised from its watery grave, hear its sepulchral tone?" The bell is a symbol for this song. It is meant to be sung at a moment of great injustice that must be stopped with a united front. The catalyst for this being the mass hangings happening in the beginning of the movie. Once the song is sung, the members of the Brethren Court are to "turn [their] sails toward home," meaning that they must unite to bring down this great evil or injustice facing the world.]]> 2018-10-12 12:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292117574 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292192231 The movies allow audiences to see what drives people to make sacrifices, and what ultimately keeps them going. The characters of the text are living both figuratively and literally fustian lives, however they are not always faced with the consequences that John Faustus faced--though hit is arguable that Jack did. ]]> 2018-10-12 14:36:56 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292192231 davisr9 https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292205460 2018-10-12 15:00:19 UTC https://padlet.com/davisr9/5upygjgo96g7/wish/292205460
