Center
Primary
The film's narrative centers on an aspiring filmmaker's personal struggle for artistic integrity and the compromises he makes, without explicitly promoting or critiquing any specific political ideology.
The movie includes visible diversity through the casting of a biracial actress in a prominent lead role. However, its narrative does not critically portray traditional identities or explicitly engage with DEI themes, focusing instead on individual character dynamics and the protagonist's artistic struggles.
Secondary
The film features Frank, a wealthy, flamboyant gay man who offers to finance the protagonist's film. While Frank is depicted with agency and complexity, his character embodies some stereotypes and makes persistent, unwanted advances. The narrative uses his identity to create comedic tension and drive plot, but it neither strongly affirms nor denigrates LGBTQ+ identity, resulting in a largely neutral overall portrayal.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
In the Soup (1992) is an original film with no prior source material, historical figures, or legacy characters. All characters were created for this specific production, meaning there is no established gender from a previous canon to be swapped.
The film "In the Soup" is an original work from 1992, not an adaptation of pre-existing material or a biopic. Consequently, there are no characters with established racial identities from prior canon or history that could be subject to a race swap.
