Tiny Pretty Things

Audience emotional responses for 'Tiny Pretty Things' are dominated by Sadness, Anxiety, and Curiosity. Sadness and Melancholy reflect the intense personal struggles, sacrifices, and often tragic outcomes for young dancers in a cutthroat environment, aligning with the 'Drama' genre. Anxiety, Curiosity, and Anticipation are central due to the overarching mystery (e.g., the 'whodunit' aspect of Cassie Shore's fall) and the constant pressure, rivalries, and uncertain futures faced by the characters. Empathy is high as viewers connect with the vulnerable and ambitious students. Anger and Envy stem from the fierce competition, betrayals, and injustices within the elite ballet academy, while Disturbing elements arise from the exploration of darker themes like abuse and manipulation. While 'Romance' is a genre, the love aspects are often complicated by the drama and mystery, leading to more fraught emotional experiences rather than pure joy or happiness.
