As with much of LaBute's work, Some Girls deals with the sexual politics within a relationship; LaBute discusses how, despite being labeled to the contrary, he's harder on his male characters than female; the influence of growing up with a scary Dad in a small house reading a lot of Harold Pinter; and the differences between working in film and theater.
