Commentary: The Neon Demon contains elements of modern ideology, primarily through its critique of the fashion industry and superficiality, but it lacks strong explicit progressive themes. There is some gendered commentary around the treatment of women in the industry, suggesting a criticism of societal norms. However, the gender dynamics are not overwhelmingly skewed, and traditional masculinity is not largely undermined. The emotional stakes are not primarily driven by romantic or emotional relationships, focusing instead on the darker, competitive aspects of beauty and fame.
