Pop visual legend and references to the 90s

Sabrina’s performance in the pole dance bar presents echoes of Striptease (1996, available at Hbo Max), starring Demi Moore. The appearance and choreography resemble the role that Moore has consecrated as a symbol of pop culture of the 90s.

The result of the clip strengthens a constant in Carpenter’s visual career: the disposable or eliminated man figure. In TearsThe protagonist repeats the gesture of facing (and eliminating) a male character, something already seen in other works such as Please, please AND Tasty.
