Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Center

Primary

The film's dominant themes align with left-leaning values by offering a profound critique of the moral decay and destructive nature of extreme wealth and rigid class structures, particularly in its depiction of the careless elite and the corrupted American Dream.

The movie features a traditional cast that aligns with the original source material's character descriptions, without any explicit DEI-driven casting choices. Its narrative critiques the moral decay and class issues of the Jazz Age through its characters, but this is not framed as an explicit critique of traditional identities in a DEI context.

Secondary

The film portrays a society, particularly the wealthy elite, whose actions are antithetical to Christian values, highlighting their moral decay and hypocrisy. While not directly critiquing Christian doctrine, the narrative depicts its nominal adherents as spiritually bankrupt and driven by materialism.

The 1974 adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The story focuses on heterosexual relationships and the social dynamics of the Jazz Age, resulting in no depiction of queer identity within its narrative.

The 1974 film adaptation of "The Great Gatsby" does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or explore themes related to transsexual identity. The narrative focuses on social class, love, and the American Dream in the 1920s, without touching upon gender identity.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The 1974 film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby" maintains the established genders of all its major characters from the source material. No characters canonically male or female in the novel are portrayed as a different gender in the movie.

The 1974 film adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel features a cast whose racial portrayals align with the established races of the characters in the source material. No major character originally depicted as one race is portrayed as a different race.
