• Tear Jerker: When Steven retrieves Robin from Chip after a struggle atop of a satellite dish, all Chip has to say after the fact is "I just wanted to be your friend! .....but I screwed it up." His confused, heartbroken face tells the whole story.
• Values Dissonance / Values Resonance - A very interesting example: in the Netherlands, many critics interpreted and even recommended the film as a psychological gay drama. Possibly because homosexuality is widely accepted in the country (so interpreting Chip's stalker behaviour as romantic love isn't weird -- rather, it's dramatic), and because the comedy style is somewhat similar to Dutch surrealist drama as a genre.
• The Woobie - Chip Douglas gets really lonely. I mean, look at him, come on.
