A father's legacy and a man's vanity. The party is the tell. Adults.
Tony is poisoned by the thing that keeps him alive and responds with spectacle. His father's old film, left behind, is the one adult object in the movie: a man who could not say it in the room and said it on a reel. Ivan Vanko wants revenge for a stolen partnership. The Senate wants the suit. None of them are a household. Pepper is an employee he loves badly.
Adults. The measure is whether brilliance excuses the waste. It does not. Take the scene where he has to hand the work to someone else. Leave the expo.

If you are failing, tell one person who is allowed to help. Do not perform wellness.

The eight
Industry
7/10
He can build what no one else can, and he will not steward his own body.
Household
3/10
A dead father on film. A living woman he keeps at the office.
Piety
2/10
None.
Courage
5/10
He fights. He is more afraid of being ordinary.
Republic
4/10
A Senate hearing that is not entirely wrong about a private weapon.
Temperance
2/10
The birthday party is the diagnosis.
Truth
5/10
The father's reel is a late truth. Tony's press conferences are not.
Stewardship
4/10
A technology too dangerous to be one man's mood. The film barely believes this.
