their supposed "prestige" was stripped off by that film and has never been replaced.

They are still referred to as "DOCTOR John Smith" socially. You: Poast.

the entire film is about a doctor whose illusion of his own social prestige is stripped from him at the same time that his own wife cucks him emotionally if not more.

I wouldn't say his social prestige is stripped at all. You mean because he couldn't get into the club? Bc there was an even more prestigious crowd in NYC?

he thought he would fit in. he thinks he's hot shit with his nice apartment and his range rover but then he shows up at the party in a cab and he's immediately outed because everyone else has drivers and he's just some prole piece of shit to them

he also thinks he's part of the elite people club because he's interacting with that wealthy dude, reviving his hookers for him.

but the film makes it clear that he's actually just a functionary, like a maid with more training.

Doctors and lawyers have always been the quintessential UMC/bourgeoise. They’re people elites like having around them (“my doctor,” “my lawyer”) but they’re never fully in the club. The club is reserved for people who make more than doctors and lawyers could ever make without warranting investigation and ethical complaints. EWS portrays that very well. I picked up on the accurate portrayal about two seconds into one of the opening scenes (the party that Cruise and Kidman attended).

And that fact is well-represented by how Cruise was invited to the Christmas party but not the secret masked ritual sacrifice party.

CR a respected doctor is a nobody to them. From elite POV, Tom is functionally the same as a waiter, butler, car mechanic.

probably true. I mean can you imagine an MD walking around flashing his “board license” and getting all kinds of favors and assistance like some sacred cow these days? he would be laughed at

but at the time this was still plausible for MDs it was NEVER plausible for JDs
