Analyzing...
Progressive
Primary
The film's allegorical narrative critiques systemic discrimination against animal actors in Hollywood, championing themes of equal opportunity and the triumph of the marginalized through individual perseverance and collective action, aligning with progressive values.
The film features an all-animal cast, which, while diverse in species, does not directly engage with human racial or gender diversity in its casting. However, its narrative strongly critiques a discriminatory power structure, portraying human antagonists negatively as they suppress the aspirations of talented animal performers, thereby centering themes of prejudice and the fight for equality.
Secondary
The film "Cats Don't Dance" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its narrative centers on anthropomorphic animals navigating Hollywood in the 1930s, focusing on ambition, prejudice against animals, and friendship. Therefore, there is no LGBTQ+ portrayal to evaluate.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
