Key themes (messages and values) for lovers on the lam

Key themes

The American Dream

Something everyone can attain 'pop' icons, mirroring or copying.

Dysfunctional Family

A result of those unrealistic ideological beliefs.

Rootlessness 

The characters have no 'roots' or ties to any family, for a variety of reasons and they embark upon a road trip to sustain their love. 

Modern Fairytale 

The films present a highly romanticised view of what it means to be in love. Love conquers all, overpowers obstacles and anything is morally acceptable to maintain the relationship.

Animalistic Nature 

Trapped/freedom - notions within their environment and the characters situation. There is a constant struggle between these opposing issues to maintain there partnership.
