comment
Childhood Friend Romance: A bizarre example, Dylan and Rebecca have actually been present in each other's lives since they were children, with neither one of them knowing the other was a real person until years later.

Long-Distance Relationship: An unusual play on the concept, since Rebecca and Dylan have never met in person at all when they become aware of each other, several hundred miles apart.

Brilliant, but Lazy: Dylan is described as this — a very smart guy mixed up with the wrong kind of people.

comment
Intelligence Equals Isolation: Dylan is notably smarter than most of the people around him, leaving him with few meaningful social connections and an obvious dissatisfaction over his lot in life.

Domestic Abuse

comment
Domestic Abuse: Rebecca's husband, Philip, an emotionally abusive Control Freak who corrects her constantly, forces her to change clothes, reads her the riot act for having a breakdown, throws out anything that connects her to her past and, in the end, has her medicated and committed to a mental institution when he believes she is cheating on him.

Red Oni, Blue Oni
 In Your Eyes / int_8411ab92
comment
Red Oni, Blue Oni: See Colour-Coded Characters - not a completely straightforward example of this trope, but some elements are present; Dylan (the Red) is an ex-con who occasionally gets into fights in bars and is on the surface more laid-back and easygoing than Rebecca (the Blue), who lives a convention-bound and apparently perfectly serene lifestyle with her doctor husband and bottles up all her negative emotions.

comment
Colour-Coded Characters: It's quite subtle, but throughout the film Rebecca is associated with cold tones and Dylan with warm ones, as she lives in snowy New Hampshire, wears monochrome outfits and blue a lot and spends a lot of time in a dark, vaguely blue-ishly lit house, while Dylan lives in the New Mexico desert and wears reds and browns, his house is very warm-toned and even in his darker spaces (the bar, outside in the evening, etc) the light is generally firelight or heavily golden.

Buffy Speak: It's a Joss Whedon movie, all right. In a drunken conversation, Dylan calls himself a "criminal element man-type".
