Gun violence prevention organization March for Our Lives has criticized the marketing of Kristoffer Borgli's dark romantic comedy, The Drama, for its "deeply misaligned" marketing campaign. The group issued a statement ahead of the film's premiere, stating that while they expect better from A24 and the artists behind it, they have a responsibility to help shape the conversation in a productive direction, not just provoke it. The statement also highlighted that while the film may be attempting to engage with real questions about accountability and change, its marketing does not meet these expectations. The film's reviews have been mixed, with some praising its lead stars and supporting cast, while others expressing mixed opinions.
