What We Think

A product of its time, ...And God Created Woman offers a provocative (for 1956) look at gender and desire but stays rooted in character and classic social tensions. Modern “woke” tropes are virtually absent; it puzzles today’s culture warriors in all camps.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on character-driven storytelling with Brigitte Bardot's role reflecting a real, flawed woman rather than a modern checkbox for representation. Identity isn't shoehorned in; rather, personal desire and societal conflict take center stage.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

While the film is risqué for its era and challenges some postwar social norms, it largely depicts traditional views on romance, gender, and family without explicit agenda-driven revision. There’s a definite spirit of rebellion, but not the modern style of subversion.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative perspectives are present, particularly regarding sexuality and femininity, but without caricature or heavy-handed villainization of tradition. The film largely allows cultural debate rather than shutting it down with an ideological hammer.
