To movies with real, flawed human beings--but in the case of this film, not wholly flawed, as it wasn't at all mysanthropic, as you imply--you prefer, what, John Wayne and Shirley Temple? Are your films of preference from Hollywood's code era? I really don't get your criticism, esp. when stated as a general principle. Would the film have redeemed itself if one of the main characters, to the accompaniment of angelic voices, had a dawning of moral clarity and announced: "Wait! Stop! Key parties are just immoral!" No human traits to admire or respect, fine. I'm not sure anyone would argue that as an aim of this film. It's something of an unabashed "downer," though quite moving, nevertheless. But none to empathize with? You're implying a degree of personal saintliness I've never encountered in anyone ever.
