Surprisingly good take for the Guardian.

I could be wrong, but I don't recall hearing the words Marx or Marxism uttered even once in the film. The Queen's Gambit had more mentions of Marxism-Leninism.

    They're more dialogue focused ImO. so the visuals in service to that. Hence most of Fred's activism was shown as speeches which was contrasted with most other dialogue with Fred being with his wife already. Reinforcing the liberal distinction of the political separated from the domestic. Also so much took place in cars jesus.
