Traditional
Primary
While acknowledging class struggle, the film champions individual perseverance, teamwork, and national unity as solutions to adversity, aligning with traditional conservative values rather than advocating for systemic change.
The film features a predominantly white, male cast, consistent with its historical setting, without explicit DEI-driven casting choices. Its narrative focuses on class disparity and collective empowerment through sport, offering a neutral to positive portrayal of traditional identities rather than a critique.
Secondary
The film subtly aligns its narrative with traditional Christian values, emphasizing virtues like humility and perseverance through a redemptive and uplifting story. Its moral undertones and wholesome relationships reflect a positive portrayal consistent with these values.
The Boys in the Boat does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative centers on a historical sports story, focusing on the rowing team's journey and related societal struggles, without incorporating any LGBTQ+ representation.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film faithfully portrays a historical male rowing team from the 1930s. There is no indication that any character, historical or adapted, has had their gender altered from their established canonical or historical representation.
