Secondary Research on Barbarella
this is a web address to an interesting article on feminism and Barbarella
Her is some if what it says:
Think about it. The guy that sticks around the longest in the film, and the closest thing the film has to a male protagonist. He's far from being the standard hero type; actually he's pretty useless. He walks into walls and just stands around until Barbarella shouts directions at him, which he quickly obeys before lapsing back into passivity. She thanks him for saving her life in the appropriately breathless damsel-in-distress fashion, but it's pretty clear to the audience that he was little more than an extra set of appendages.
