Ingalls plays with the archetype of the traditional Gothic Hero with Larry (who is about as average as his name). Larry very well may be the lonely housewife Dorothy’s own creation, both as an erotic object and a compensation for her lost children.
Both odd and profound, I’m happy Del Toro’s ‘The Shape of Water’ brought this back into print.
Moderate: Domestic abuse and Miscarriage
