A Single Man (2009)

The film leans left due to its empathetic portrayal of a gay man's profound grief and isolation in a prejudiced 1960s society, implicitly critiquing heteronormative norms, though its primary focus remains on individual internal struggle and the search for personal meaning.

The movie features traditional casting without explicit race or gender swaps of roles. Its narrative centers on a white, male protagonist's personal journey of grief and identity, without explicitly critiquing or negatively portraying traditional identities.
