I'm totally just going off of vibes here, but I feel like neat and competent mass-market, mid-budget, R-rated dramas are much harder to find these days. Like the stuff Miramax would put out. Maybe A24 is sort of playing this role, but it does seem like screens are dominated by "events," most of which are incredibly unpleasant to look at and deliberately scrubbed of all character in order to appeal to as many markets as possible.
