Center
Primary
The series critiques systemic corruption within a powerful government intelligence agency, emphasizing individual integrity and survival against a 'deep state' conspiracy. This focus on skepticism of government power and individual agency against institutional overreach aligns with right-leaning and libertarian perspectives.
The movie features visible diversity in its supporting cast, but its primary roles align with traditional casting without explicit race or gender swaps. The narrative focuses on a political conspiracy, offering no explicit critique of traditional identities or making DEI themes central to its plot.
Secondary
The show 'Condor' features Mae Barber, a prominent bisexual character whose relationship with a woman is a significant part of her personal arc. This depiction is integrated into the narrative without being sensationalized or stereotyped. It neither overtly uplifts nor denigrates LGBTQ+ identity, presenting it as a facet of a complex character's life within a spy thriller context.
The series adapts characters from the 1975 film "Three Days of the Condor" and its source novel. Characters equivalent to the originally male J. Higgins and Leonard Atwood are portrayed as female characters Marty Frost and Mae Barber in the 2018 series.
The character Mae Barber, who was portrayed as Asian in the 1975 film 'Three Days of the Condor' (source material), is played by a white actress in the 2018 series 'Condor'. This constitutes a race swap.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
