Leans Progressive
Primary
The film focuses on universal themes of survival, human connection, and personal resilience in the face of extreme adversity, without engaging in political commentary or promoting any specific ideological viewpoint, thus remaining neutral.
The movie features significant DEI primarily through its casting choice, where a traditionally white role from the source material is explicitly recast with a Black actor. However, the narrative itself does not explicitly critique traditional identities or center on broader DEI themes, focusing instead on a survival and romance story.
Secondary
