Leans Traditional
Primary
Pollyanna receives a neutral rating as its central narrative focuses on universal human themes of optimism, community, and individual transformation, rather than explicitly promoting a specific political ideology or advocating for systemic change. The film's solution to societal problems is primarily individual mindset shifts and interpersonal connection.
The film features traditional casting with a predominantly white ensemble, consistent with its historical setting and production era. The narrative does not critique traditional identities and focuses on a story of optimism and community transformation without explicit DEI themes.
Secondary

The narrative champions these virtues, showing them as central to healing and unity.
