| 9 | * AllForNothing: Subverted. [[spoiler:Despite getting the money to buy the gallery after Robert sells his house in London to buy Jack's share of their house in Tuscany, Ruth still refuses to sell the gallery to him, but although Jack doesn't get what he originally wanted, he's still able to repair his relationship with his father]]. |
| 10 | * AmicableExes: Downplayed and invoked with Natalia and Marzio. Natalia is justifiably mad at Marzio for lying about her in court to get a bigger share of their daughter's custody, but Natalia still makes an effort to keep their relationship cordial for Anna's sake. |
| 11 | * DisappearedDad: [[spoiler: Robert sent Jack away to boarding school after his wife/Jack’s mother died in a car accident because he wanted to protect Jack from any reminders of her.]] |
| 12 | * DivorceAssetsConflict: The plot of the film is triggered by Jack’s wife (who he is currently divorcing) coming to the gallery to spitefully tell him that her parents are planning to sell it, forcing him to try and sell the Tuscany House in order to buy it off them. [[spoiler: Even after he has the money, she refuses to sell it to him]]. |
| 13 | * EccentricArtist: Robert is a mostly mild example. |
| 14 | * {{Hypocrite}}: PlayedForLaughs. Robert defends that a man should not get married before 35, because according to him, before that age a man doesn't really know who he is or what he wants from life. When Jack asks him how old he was at the time of his wedding to Jack's mother, Robert answers that he was 29... but that it was a completely different situation. |
| 15 | * MaybeEverAfter: [[spoiler: By the end of the film, it seems like Jack will have a new chance at love with Natalia, and Robert with Kate, but the latter case is more ambiguous than the former]]. |
| 16 | * MissingMom: Jack's mother died in a car crash when he was just seven years old. |
