Center
Primary
The film's central premise of a chimpanzee picking hit TV shows and the resulting corporate intrigue is inherently apolitical, focusing on lighthearted entertainment and commercial success rather than promoting specific political ideologies.
Based on the absence of specific casting or narrative details, this evaluation assumes traditional character representation and framing of identities. The analysis does not identify explicit DEI elements in either casting choices or thematic focus.
Secondary
The 1995 TV movie is a remake of the 1971 film. The original's male protagonist, Steven Post, is portrayed as a female character named Holly in the 1995 version, constituting a gender swap.
The film 'The Barefoot Executive' does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its plot. The story centers on a woman and a chimpanzee in the television industry, offering no portrayal of queer identity to evaluate.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The 1995 TV movie is a remake of a 1971 TV movie. A review of the main characters and their portrayals in both versions reveals no instances where a character established as one race was depicted as a different race.
