A change in the wind!
I find this VERY interesting in movie 1..some of us know that with the original draft script it was much more Jack/Liz orientated (thanks to katelovespirate for posting)
You know that scene where the wind changes as soon as Liz falls in the water and Jack dives in
In my honest opinion it was cut out because..I think its tied in with what their original plans for the script where..where it was very Jack/Liz orientated..its one of the "too close" Jack/Liz scenes they cut out IMO because by this point their ending was Will/Liz decided..
I looked at it and thought..yeah they cut that out because its so randomly long..but then I thought to myself as someone who studies how to do screenplays etc why would they even make that so randomly long.to the point where its like WHAT THE HELL is this ever going to end..just to show you that the wind is changing direction
IT MEANS SOMETHING MORE when you drag a scene out like this..its supposed to make a huge huge significant point
what we basically see is her fall in..then Jack dives in..then the wind changes..and as he draws closer to her the music comes all the more dramatic..and we then see so many shots of the wind blowing and disrupting the stuck up peoples lives..all their fancy hats get knocked off..all their pretty umbrellas..and it reaches a climax as soon as he grabs her
In my opinion this symbolizes:
ELIZABETH SWAN MEETS CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW. BOTH THEIR LIVES ARE ABOUT TO CHANGE FOREVER.
a change in the wind for both characters.
