Storytelling

The film doesn't focus on LGBTQ+ identities or experiences. Instead, it deals with general feelings of social isolation and frustration.

Characters are defined by their emotional instability rather than traditional gender roles. Women play significant roles in driving the story, while men are shown as emotionally unstable and inadequate.

The film is set in a predominantly white, middle-class suburb in New Jersey. There is no diverse casting, which limits the range of characters represented.

The film effectively critiques the stability of Western institutions. It portrays the family unit as a place of resentment and moral relativism.

The film centers on psychological instability and neurosis, showing characters' struggles through social isolation without framing these conditions as positive or inspirational.
