I thought it was realistic that a young person of color might have more distrust of white people (in 2023) than their parents. I liked that the movie addressed that. [/quote]

I thought she was incredibly rude, obnoxious, and full of herself.  Of course the Julia Roberts character was leery about letting two complete strangers in the house, much less letting them spend the night - her husband should have been just as concerned.  Their race had nothing to do with that.  I wouldn't have let two strangers in, regardless of what they looked like.  And then the daughter tells her father that Clay wants to have sex with her.  As if.  [/quote]

I think that including her character was kind of self aware. She was paranoid and accusatory, but she was also not exactly of pure intentions herself.  I mean. She flirted with the husband and literally asked him if he ever f--ed a student and called him hot. Come on.  [/quote]
