* CentralTheme: The film verges on RandomEventsPlot, with various events happening as Adriana goes to Rome and tries to make it in show business. But there is a central connecting theme, namely, how she is sexually and financially exploited by rapacious men. Her slimy agent is clearly more concerned with bilking her than with furthering her career, and later he tries to pimp her out to a rich guy. Adriana models a dress between rounds of a boxing match, and drunk men hoot at her. Her boyfriend has sex with her, then sneaks out of the hotel in the middle of the night, sticking her with the bill.

* RoundTableShot: This is used in Adriana's acting class when she and all the other hopeless wannabe actors practice their diction by chanting some vowel-heavy words over and over. The camera gradually spins faster and faster until everything is a blur, and the scene finally ends when Adriana faints. She's pregnant.
