What We Think

Amanda Knox is about as far from 'woke' as it gets in modern documentaries. It avoids ideological grandstanding, focuses on facts and individual experience, and offers a well-rounded look at a complex case. Very non-woke by current standards.

Not Woke

What is this?

Amanda Knox is a true crime documentary that focuses on the facts of a controversial murder case. It avoids the usual identity-centered storytelling, sticking close to personal experience, legal justice, and individual psychology. There's little evidence of narrative being twisted to fit a particular ideology or modern social themes.

Not Woke

The film presents events with minimal commentary on traditional values, religious beliefs, or gender norms. It steers clear of overt critiques of family, masculinity, or religion, focusing on the individuals and media circus instead.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative viewpoints, including those of the Italian police, media, and the accused, are fairly represented. The film features a range of perspectives rather than uncritically pushing a singular ideological narrative.
