Center

Primary

Political: CenterConfidence: High

The film's central subject matter of chronic pain, grief, and addiction is inherently apolitical, and its championed solution focuses on individual healing and personal connection rather than any systemic or political intervention, leading to a neutral rating.

Diversity: ModerateConfidence: High

The movie features visible diversity in its supporting cast, particularly with a prominent Latina character. However, its narrative primarily focuses on a personal journey of pain and recovery, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering on broader DEI themes.

Secondary

LGBTQ: N/AConfidence: High

The film "Cake" centers on a woman's journey through chronic pain, grief, and addiction. The narrative does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes, thus there is no portrayal to evaluate.

FemPower: N/R

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

Gender Swap: NoConfidence: High

Cake (2014) is an original film with characters created specifically for its screenplay. There is no prior source material, historical record, or previous adaptation from which any character's gender could have been canonically established and subsequently swapped.

Race Swap: NoConfidence: High

The film "Cake" (2014) is an original story, not an adaptation of existing material or a biopic. Therefore, its characters do not have pre-established canonical or historical racial identities that could be altered, meaning no race swaps occurred.
