It doesn’t take a degree in comparative literature to identify the themes of most movies and what side of them the filmmakers fall on. Jordan Peele hates racism. Orson Welles hated William Randolph Hearst. Steven Spielberg hates dinosaurs and doesn’t want us to have any despite how sick that would be.
Somehow, though, people still manage to miss the messages of even the most hamfisted screen stories. You could force a character to look directly into the camera and say, “I’m actually the bad guy,” and as long as he looks cool enough, somebody will probably ruin their life in his name. That’s why one Redditor asked r/AskReddit, “What’s a movie most people completely missed the point on?”
