Winona in Heathers is definitely a root for so many cinematic alt-girls stuck in the limbo between good girl and bad girl (see, also Alabama from True Romance)

[also, I believe Brats is a Hulu doc, not Netflix]

I recently wrote a piece about the sports-business micro-genre and in it, as well as while researching for it, I discovered the pattern of sports managers/coaches having: a) a failure that hangs over them (either career or romantic) b) a desire for innovation, to change something about the sports industry and c) a poor relationship with a colleague.

So I guess that's a... Dejected Genius Sports Coach? Open to suggestions 😭
