Another movie where it is much debated over who is the protagonist is “Witness”. In the spec script, the Amish widow, Rachel, was clearly the focus, the protagonist. But the director, Peter Weir worked with the writers to refashion the story so that the Philadelphia detective, John Book, becomes the protagonist.
One measure of who gets to be tagged as the protagonist is the character who has the biggest arc of transformation.

>Two people cannot carry out the same fight while hating and fearing each other as strong as you say.
Oh yes they can! That species of relationship conflict may not be in the movies cited in this thread. And it’s difficult to do right, but when it is done credibly, it ratchets up suspense and jeopardy in terms of the objective goal.
One point where I strongly agree with Jean-Marie is his observation that they cannot achieve the objective goal until they solve their relationship. That is absolutely correct, a sin qua non.
