Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Progressive

Primary

The film's central narrative strongly critiques systemic homophobia and celebrates the value of marginalized individuals, aligning its dominant themes with progressive values of social justice and human rights.

The movie features traditional casting that aligns with the historical period and characters. However, its narrative strongly emphasizes the persecution of Alan Turing due to his homosexuality, offering a significant critique of societal intolerance and the injustices faced by non-traditional identities within a traditional framework.

Secondary

The film offers an affirming portrayal of Alan Turing, highlighting his genius and the immense injustice he faced due to his homosexuality. It condemns the historical persecution of LGBTQ+ individuals, framing societal prejudice as the true tragedy, not his identity.

The Imitation Game primarily explores the life of Alan Turing, his pivotal role in cracking the Enigma code, and the societal persecution he faced due to his homosexuality. The narrative does not include any identifiable transsexual characters or themes, focusing instead on issues related to sexual orientation and wartime contributions.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The Imitation Game is a historical biopic depicting real-life figures involved in cracking the Enigma code. All main characters, including Alan Turing and Joan Clarke, are portrayed with the same gender as their documented historical counterparts, with no instances of gender swapping.

The film is a historical drama based on the life of Alan Turing and his colleagues, all of whom were historically white. The actors cast in these roles are also white, aligning with their historical race. No instances of race swapping are present.
