Center

Primary

The film primarily functions as an adventure story exploring scientific discovery, the allure of the unknown, and the moral complexities of Captain Nemo's isolation and quest for revenge. It does not explicitly promote a specific political ideology, focusing instead on universal themes.

This 1916 adaptation of '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea' features a traditional cast consistent with the filmmaking practices of its time, without intentional diversity in casting or character representation. The narrative focuses on adventure and exploration, without engaging in critiques of traditional identities or incorporating explicit DEI themes.

Secondary

Captain Nemo, canonically established as Indian in Jules Verne's broader literary canon, is portrayed by a white actor in the 1916 film adaptation.

The 1916 film "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Consequently, there is no portrayal of queer identity, either positive, negative, or neutral, within the film's narrative. The film's focus remains on its adventure and scientific exploration elements.

The 1916 film "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" does not contain any discernible transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on adventure and exploration, consistent with its source material and the cinematic conventions of its era, resulting in a 'N/A' rating for transsexual portrayal.

The film features female characters in supporting roles, but none are depicted engaging in or winning close-quarters physical combat against male opponents. Their roles do not involve direct physical confrontation.

The 1916 film adaptation of Jules Verne's novel retains the canonical genders of its main characters, such as Captain Nemo, Professor Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned Land. The film introduces an original character, the 'Daughter of the Sea,' who was not present in the source material, thus not constituting a gender swap.
