Father Figures (2017)

Father Figures includes a gay character, Roland, whose identity is a comedic plot point. The film uses his sexuality for surprise and humor, which can be seen as a dated trope. However, it avoids overtly negative or degrading portrayals, presenting Roland as a successful individual, leading to a neutral overall impact.

The film portrays a devout Christian character, Roland Hunt, who, despite being a source of comedic situations due to his earnestness, is ultimately depicted as a kind, loving, and sincere individual. His faith is presented as a genuine part of his character without being framed as hypocritical or problematic by the narrative.
