By examining popular films featuring "unlikely couples," the author argues against the notion that narrative cinema merely reinforces dominant social interests. The analysis highlights how these films reveal and critique societal attitudes, boundaries, and prejudices, offering a fresh perspective on their role in reflecting and challenging social norms.
