But we don't stop there – we'll also dig into the movie's underlying themes around romance and marriage, including some of the more questionable attitudes portrayed.Join us as we tackle Adam's objectifying attitude toward women, his leathery fringe outfit, and how the movie reflects his chauvinistic views.
