Elisabeth, void of self-reflection, lacks relationships outside her grotesque existence with Sue, highlighting a hollow interpretation of beauty devoid of internal life.
The film's vibrant, sterile settings underscore the grotesquerie of bodily transformations, producing a stark contrast that amplifies Elisabeth's shame and the horror of her dual existence.
As Elisabeth and Sue alternate weekly lives, the narrative fails to leverage their rivalry for humor, opting instead for a grotesque examination of envy and disconnection.
Elisabeth's jealousy when viewing Sue's success serves as a critique of superficial beauty narratives, reinforcing the idea that external allure often hides deeper voids.
