Overview
“From the window of my bedroom I noticed a little shad-blow tree… I photographed it on 35-mm color film in every season and at all hours of the day… [Pare] Lorentz, like the great documentary film-man he is, immediately suggested that I transfer these pictures onto movie film and let one dissolve into the other. This struck me as a good idea. But then I thought, why turn these still pictures into a film? Why not start the series over again as a motion picture and take advantage of the wind and the rain and the movements of the water?” (Edward Steichen)

Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central subject matter, focusing on a tree's natural growth and its aspiration to become a Christmas tree, is inherently apolitical. The narrative champions universal themes of patience and the fulfillment of a simple, traditional purpose, without promoting any specific political ideology.
This movie, based on a 1940 children's book, features a narrative centered on a tree's simple wish, without engaging with human societal identities or power dynamics. Its representation aligns with traditional depictions of its era, with no evidence of intentional diversity-driven casting or narrative critiques of traditional identities.
Secondary
Based on available information, 'The Little Tree' by Edward Steichen is a children's book that does not feature any LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Therefore, an evaluation of its portrayal of LGBTQ+ elements is not applicable.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film "The Little Tree" (1961) is an adaptation of a children's book about a tree. It does not feature human or anthropomorphic characters with established genders from source material, thus precluding a gender swap.
The 1961 film "The Little Tree" is an adaptation of Edward Steichen's 1946 children's book. There is no evidence of any character, canonically established as one race in the source material, being portrayed as a different race in the film adaptation.
