I don't know how much this works, since there isn't much actual storytelling or writing involved, but I feel like Utena is very much about Utena trying to change the narrative of fairy tales by becoming the prince, and in the movie, she and Anthy literally break out of the screen via naked car forms. Kind of edge case, but mostly the frame of the episodes and the silhouette puppet narrator girls in each episode reminded of this.
