Leans Progressive
Primary
The series leans left due to its consistent critique of systemic sexism and ageism in Hollywood, and its exploration of power dynamics and the superficiality of elite society, framing personal feuds within broader societal pressures.
The series 'Feud: Bette and Joan' features casting that accurately reflects the historical figures it portrays, who were predominantly white. Its narrative critiques the patriarchal studio system of the 1960s, focusing on the sexism and ageism faced by women in Hollywood, rather than explicitly targeting traditional identities.
Secondary
The series 'FEUD: Bette and Joan' features historical figures known to be gay, such as director George Cukor. While these characters are depicted with dignity in their professional capacities, their queer identity is not a central theme or explored in depth, leading to an incidental portrayal that neither uplifts nor denigrates.
The series portrays Joan Crawford's Christian Science faith as a significant and nuanced aspect of her character. It serves as a source of discipline, moral guidance, and personal solace, offering her strength amidst the challenges of Hollywood. While it contributes to her rigidity and isolation, the narrative treats her faith with depth and sympathy, not as inherently problematic or foolish.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Feud is a historical drama portraying real-life figures. All major and supporting characters are depicted with the same gender as their historical counterparts, with no instances of a character's established gender being changed for the screen.
The series "FEUD" portrays historical figures such as Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Truman Capote, and the 'Swans.' All major characters are depicted by actors whose race aligns with the documented historical race of the individuals they portray.
