The entire film consists of wild swings of ups and downs. Its world is anarchic.

This is not just true for the hero - but for everyone else, too.

Yeah, but is there a reason for why she ended up from being a millionaire to a bum?
Or weren't they the same character, just that the bum and the rich girl were both played by Helen Mirren and makes it confusing?

She constantly derides Michael for being materialistic .she's always running away from home to live the free spirit life (and then returning when the mood fits her). She 's done it again here (and who knows, may give this up and go back to Daddy's mansion in another couple of days.

This is one of those movies where the less sense it makes, the more profound we are supposed to think it is.
