Leans Traditional
Primary
The film is a classic whodunit focusing on individual moral failings, deception, and the unraveling of a murder mystery among a group of wealthy friends, without promoting or critiquing any specific political ideology.
The film features a cast that aligns with traditional Hollywood productions of its time, primarily consisting of white actors, without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative focuses on a murder mystery among a wealthy group, and it does not offer a critical portrayal of traditional identities or explicitly center on themes related to diversity, equity, or inclusion.
Secondary

The portrayal is incidental, avoiding strong positive or negative arcs.
