The inner city as a dangerous place of crime for white suburbanites stopped being used as a trope in the 90’s while it is on display here. The study of a broken man in the process of snapping also feels a lot like movies like Taxi Driver. I also feel like certain locations and the dress of the main character is made to evoke older times.
