Another World (1964)
Overview
Another World is an American television soap opera that ran on NBC for 35 years from May 4, 1964 to June 25, 1999. Set in the fictional town of Bay City, the show in its early years opens with announcer Bill Wolff intoning its epigram, “We do not live in this world alone, but in a thousand other worlds,” which Phillips said represented the difference between “the world of events we live in, and the world of feelings and dreams that we strive for.” Another World focused less on the conventional drama of domestic life as seen in other soap operas, and more on exotic melodrama between families of different classes and philosophies.

Primary
The film's central subject matter, the process and nature of filmmaking, is inherently apolitical, focusing on artistic and philosophical questions rather than societal or political issues. It does not champion any specific political ideology or critique from a political standpoint.
The movie features a cast that aligns with traditional casting practices of its time, without evident intentional race or gender swaps for established roles. Its narrative does not appear to critically portray traditional identities or center explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
Another World, a long-running soap opera, featured groundbreaking LGBTQ+ storylines, including one of daytime TV's first gay male couples, Kevin and Brett, and later, the lesbian character Frankie Frame. These portrayals explored coming out and relationships with dignity, contributing to a net positive and affirming depiction of queer identity for its era.
The evaluation of 'Another World (show, 1964)' regarding its portrayal of transsexual characters and themes could not be completed. No content or narrative details were supplied to assess any depiction, leading to an N/A rating for trans presence and portrayal.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
As an original television series that premiered in 1964, "Another World" created its own characters without pre-existing source material or historical figures. Therefore, no characters could have been gender-swapped from a prior established canon.
There is no widely documented or reported instance of a character in the long-running soap opera "Another World" (1964) being canonically established as one race and then later portrayed by an actor of a different race.
