León explained that, “The film’s other characters were created as foils to Blanco, but as people whom he doesn’t view as true rivals. They are characters he thinks he can handle easily: a woman who works at a supermarket, a blue-collar immigrant delivery driver, a young intern. But everyone stands up to him and says “no,” and that generates an increasing frustration on his part.”Importantly though, that dynamic “also generates empathy.
