Both main characters are female; it developed from there. I dunno as I'd call it a "defined thematic choice", but I submit that it was kind of inevitable given the casting. :) Or you're reading too far into it. Take your pick.

It's probably a result of my having watched it nine bazillion times, actually. That's one of my favorite movies, and there are certain parallels between its setting and that of the early Symphony. :)
