Detailed Bias Analysis
Analyzing...
Leans Progressive
Primary
The film primarily focuses on an individual's journey of personal growth and responsibility, with inherited wealth serving as a backdrop for character development rather than a subject of systemic critique, resulting in a neutral rating.
The movie incorporates explicit DEI through the gender-swapped casting of a key supporting role. However, its narrative primarily focuses on the personal journey of its protagonist without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering strong DEI themes.
Secondary
The film features Bitterman, Arthur's gay chauffeur, who is depicted in a stable, loving relationship. His identity is present but not central, and while Arthur makes occasional flippant remarks, Bitterman is portrayed with dignity and competence, resulting in a neutral overall impact.
The 2011 film "Arthur" reimagines the character Hobson, who was established as a male butler in the 1981 original, as a female nanny. This constitutes a clear gender swap for a significant character.
The film 'Arthur' (2011) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Consequently, there is no specific portrayal of transsexual identity or experiences to evaluate within the narrative.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 2011 film "Arthur" is a remake of the 1981 film. All major characters, including Arthur Bach and Hobson, are portrayed by actors of the same race as their counterparts in the original film. No character established as one race was depicted as a different race.
