Leans Traditional
Primary
The film explores the personal and relational impact of wealth disparity, female friendships, and mid-life anxieties, observing human behavior and societal pressures without explicitly promoting a specific political ideology or offering a systemic solution.
The movie features a predominantly white main cast, reflecting traditional casting choices. Its narrative explores personal and relational themes among these characters without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering on broader DEI themes.
Secondary
The film includes minor gay characters, Marty and Mary, whose sexualities are acknowledged but remain incidental to the main narrative. Their depictions are neutral, avoiding both problematic stereotypes and significant affirming arcs. Their presence neither uplifts nor denigrates LGBTQ+ identity, serving primarily as background elements in the characters' social circles.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
