Carolyn is similarly driven by conventional views of happiness; from her belief in "house beautiful" domestic bliss to her car and gardening outfit, Carolyn's domain is a "fetching American millennial vision of Pleasantville, or Eden". The Burnhams are unaware that they are "materialists philosophically, and devout consumers ethically" who expect the "rudiments of American beauty" to give them happiness. Anker argues that "they are helpless in the face of the prettified economic and sexual stereotypes ... that they and their culture have designated for their salvation." The film presents Ricky as its "visionary, ... spiritual and mystical center".

2nd Edition. (Baltimore, Maryland: The Johns Hopkins University Press, 2005). They attributed the popularity of Trees largely to its religious appeal and believed it was a "stock response that has nothing to do, as such, with poetry", adding: > It praises God and appeals to a religious sentiment. Therefore, people who > do not stop to look at the poem itself or to study the images in the poem > and think about what the poem really says, are inclined to accept the poem > because of the pious sentiment, the prettified little pictures (which in > themselves appeal to stock responses), and the mechanical rhythm.

Gasparro created several different designs before receiving final approval. One of his portraits, depicting Anthony at age 28, was shown to Anthony's great-niece, Susan B. Anthony III, who rejected it on the grounds that it unnecessarily "prettified" her great-aunt, and she criticized another design depicting Anthony at age 84, which she believed made her appear too old. Gasparro made several alterations with the intent to depict her at age 50, at the peak of her influence as a social reformer, but no photographs of Anthony during that period are known to exist. He eventually received approval after modification, later stating his belief that he had accurately portrayed Anthony.
