I noticed right away, without knowing where the film was going, that he was filmed in the sexualized way that women are traditionally shot: his pants are waAaayyyy too tight, and he’s constantly bending over, displaying his butt for the camera.
His pivotal moment is when he stands up for his Grandmother… and he’s the only person in his family to do so.
This is when we see that he is a quality person, and that differentiates him from Dot, who is bound to repeat the same destructive patterns of her mother.
