Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Traditional

Primary

Saint Joan explores the conflict between rigid institutional power and individual spiritual conviction, portraying the tragic consequences of religious persecution. The film's critique of institutional injustice and its affirmation of individual faith do not align predominantly with either modern progressive or conservative ideologies, leading to a neutral rating.

The movie features a traditional, all-white cast, consistent with its historical setting and the era of its production, without any intentional race or gender swaps. The narrative, while depicting a female protagonist challenging established male authority, does not explicitly critique traditional identities or incorporate modern DEI themes as a central element.

Secondary

The film portrays Joan's personal, unwavering Christian faith with profound respect and dignity, aligning the narrative with her virtues. While it critiques the political and institutional corruption of the Church hierarchy, it positions the audience to condemn the bigotry and injustice Joan faces from these officials, thereby affirming her genuine spiritual conviction.

Otto Preminger's 'Saint Joan' is a historical drama centered on Joan of Arc's life, trial, and execution. The film does not include any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes, focusing instead on religious conviction, political conflict, and gender roles of the period.

The film 'Saint Joan' (1957) focuses on the historical figure Joan of Arc. There are no identifiable transsexual characters or themes present in the narrative.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The 1957 film "Saint Joan" adapts the historical account of Joan of Arc and George Bernard Shaw's play. All major characters, including Joan herself and the historical figures surrounding her, maintain their historically established genders in the film's portrayal.
