People saying this is a movie for the male gaze completely miss the nuances of the film. The story has some social commentary on how dancers and sex workers are treated, especially by the disconnected billionaires of the world. It offers a perspective on the nature of the henchman. I felt the ending was profound, and the way Anora is treated is remarkable. In the end, I saw an example of consent, and emotional release. Left entertained, disturbed, and pondering, and empathy towards Anora and the victims of the rich who lack compassion and self awareness.
