  • Moral Event Horizon: If you don't believe Lenny crosses it when he drugs his sons after being unable to find a sitter, he's surely crossed it by the end when he kidnaps them from their mother's babysitter and flees his apartment.
  • Too Bleak, Stopped Caring: Lenny is slowly revealed from a flawed-yet-lovable psychopath at the beginning of the film to be a self-serving asshole by the end. With the Crapsack World of New York as the backdrop, he gives up the crucial role of one of the movie's only sympathetic characters.
