Audience Representation

Racial audience withheld

Only 58% of the cast has a researched race, so these scores stay blank.

Why this is blank

A partial classification would pull origin-race scores toward the researched slice and away from the cast as it is. The nine audience scores are withheld instead of shown as zero. Zero would mean no audience, which is not what a thin cast record says.

LGBTQ+
29

Faithfulness

Faithfulness not applicable

Faithfulness is scored only for adaptations.

Why this is blank

An original has no source text to compare. The score is left blank rather than shown as zero.

Synopsis

Aging TV star Walter Campbell's attempts to break up with younger girlfriend Lucy are thwarted by the announcement of her pregnancy. Looking for space, Walter resolves to visit his estranged daughter Nic, currently residing in Big Sur, resentful of her father's neglectful parenting and womanizing ways. He agrees to give a lift to Nic's friend Kim, who having recently attended the funeral of her estranged mother, is dealing with her own emotional baggage. Upon arriving in Big Sur, Walter discovers that Nic is living on a lesbian commune, and is in fact due to get married. Nic is appreciative of Walter's acceptance of her sexuality, which sees the pair's relationship begin to repair, but this newly formed bond is at risk of being destroyed once and for all.
