Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Center

Primary

The film's central narrative revolves around universal childhood experiences of bullying and peer pressure, with the solution emphasizing individual courage and perseverance to overcome challenges and foster friendship, thus remaining apolitical.

The movie features visible diversity within its ensemble cast of child actors, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. The narrative maintains a neutral or positive framing of traditional identities and does not explicitly integrate DEI themes as central to its plot.

Secondary

The film "How to Eat Fried Worms" does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The story centers on a boy's challenge to eat worms and the dynamics among his schoolmates, with no elements related to queer identity present in the plot or character arcs.

The film "How to Eat Fried Worms" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on a young boy's challenge to eat worms, with no elements related to transgender identity or experiences present in the story.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The film is an adaptation of the 1973 novel, and all primary characters, including Billy and the boys involved in the worm-eating challenge, maintain their original male gender from the source material. No established characters were portrayed as a different gender.

The 2006 film adapts the 1973 children's novel. Key characters, visually depicted as white in the original book's illustrations, are portrayed by white actors in the movie, showing no instances of a race swap.
