…This places the film in an unofficial sub-genre: the “intentionally or not” films. I like these. (Die Hard 4 is, “unintentionally or not,” a hell of a movie about how emasculated America felt in the years following 9/11.) In the case of Nocturnal Animals, it’s “intentionally or not, this movie is a working model for how movies, and the movie industry, view men and women differently.” Nocturnal Animals is nauseatingly true to a world where men are artists, and women are fodder.
