Leans Traditional
Primary
While the core subject of time-travel romance is apolitical, the film's solution to the protagonist's modern cynicism and lack of fulfillment is found in the embrace of traditional chivalry, manners, and romantic ideals embodied by the character from the past, subtly championing these values.
The movie features a predominantly white main cast without explicit DEI-driven casting choices. Its narrative positively frames traditional identities, particularly the charming, chivalrous male protagonist, and does not incorporate DEI themes as a central element of its story.
Secondary
The film includes a gay character, Stuart, whose relationship is depicted positively and without prejudice. While not central to the main plot, the portrayal is affirming, showing acceptance and normalcy, even from a character from a different era. The net impact is supportive and validating.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Kate & Leopold is an original film with characters created specifically for this movie. There are no pre-existing source materials, historical figures, or prior installments from which character genders could be swapped.
