Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central narrative is an apolitical blend of suspense and romance, focusing on an individual's quest to clear his name and catch a criminal, without promoting a specific political ideology.
The movie features traditional casting with a predominantly white ensemble, consistent with its era. The narrative maintains a neutral to positive portrayal of traditional identities, without incorporating explicit DEI themes or critiques.
Secondary
To Catch a Thief does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative is centered on a heterosexual romance and a crime mystery, with no elements that depict, affirm, or denigrate queer identity. Therefore, the film has no net impact on the portrayal of LGBTQ+ individuals.
