!!This film contains examples of the following tropes
*ArmoredClosetGay: A case can be made for Johnny who went as far as joining a far-right street gang and becoming ''their leader'' before his accidental run-in with Omar.
* BaitAndSwitch: At first it seems like the encounter with a street gang will end up very badly but then it turns out that not only do Johnny and Omar know each other - they actually used to date.
*MaybeEverAfter: The final shot of the film features Johnny and Omar together and happy but doesn't give any outright indications about what their future will be like.
*RetroactiveRecognition: Why yes, it ''is'' Creator/DanielDayLewis playing Johnny.
*StraightGay: Both Johnny and Omar. You wouldn't know either of them is gay by just looking at them.
*YourCheatingHeart: Omar's uncle Nasser.
