Line 9: ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== Tropes: ===~~ * [[Anything That Moves]]: Brandon seems to have no problem sleeping with men as well as women if [[Situational Sexuality\|the circumstances demand it]]. * [[Casanova Wannabe]]: David spends every waking moment hitting on women, even though he's married with kids, and seems to have a great time doing it even though he's often unsuccessful. Brandon, in contrast, seems to have no problem finding sexual partners, but it brings him virtually no happiness. * [[Caught ~~With~~with Your Pants Down]]: Both siblings accidentally walk in on the other one naked. And in both cases they seem more bothered by the invasion of privacy than any qualms about seeing their bodies. * [[Crapsack World]]: It's implied that the fast-moving life in a city like New York and the social expectations that come with it are partly responsible for Brandon's addiction. * [[A Date ~~With~~with Rosie Palms]]: Brandon, a few times. We get the impression he does it frequently at work. * [[Downer Ending]]: Sissy has {{spoiler\|attempted suicide}} for what is likely not the first time, and Brandon still hasn't really dealt with his problems. * [[Driven to Suicide]]: {{spoiler\|Sissy, although she survives.}} Line 25: * [[Improv]]: Several scenes were partially or largely ad-libbed, including Brandon and Marianne's date, leading to an endearingly awkward and realistic conversation. * [[Incest Subtext]]: Brandon and Sissy's relationship is waaaaaaay open to interpretation. * [[~~Its~~It's Not Porn, ~~Its~~It's Art]] * [[Joisey]]: Where Brandon and Sissy grew up. * [[Leave the Camera Running]]: McQueen loves these; Brandon and Marianne's date is one long take, as is part of Sissy's performance of "New York, New York," as is their heated conversation on the couch. Line 31: * [[Male Frontal Nudity]]: And how! The very beginning of the film features extended looks at Fassbender's not-so-little soldier. * [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]]: Sissy. Though it doesn't seem to be working for her. * [[Mood Whiplash]]: Used a few times, most strikingly after Sissy catches Brandon having [[A Date ~~With~~with Rosie Palms\|private moment]] and thinks he's kidding when he angrily confronts her, only to become extremely scared and upset when she realizes he's not. Made all the more powerful because it's [[Leave the Camera Running\|in one take]]. * [[My Sister Is Off-Limits]]: Brandon is less than pleased about Sissy having sex with his boss. Whether it's because of this trope, because his boss is married with children or [[Brother-Sister Incest\|something else entirely]] is open to debate. * [[The Oner]]: Brandon jogs along 31st St. at night while {{spoiler\|Sissy and David are hooking up in his apartment}}; it's shot as one long take. Line 46: {{reflist}} [[Category:Films of the 2010s]] [[Category:~~Shame~~{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Film]]
