What We Think

Breakfast at Tiffany's is decidedly non-woke, rooted in classic storytelling with very little modern ideological intrusion. Its cultural sensibilities strongly reflect early 1960s norms rather than contemporary activism.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Breakfast at Tiffany's focuses on personal quirks, romance, and character-driven storylines, not modern identity ideology. Social issues or character traits like race, gender, or sexuality are not unnaturally shoehorned into the narrative; character motivations stay front and center.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional family values, love, and morality are presented with a light touch, if somewhat playfully, reflecting the cultural norms of its era. The film doesn't undermine traditional roles or mock religion, masculinity, or family in the way many contemporary works do.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative views aren't villainized; in fact, the film captures broad perspectives of its time without modern ideological conformity. The absence of present-day monoculture is more a result of the film's era than any agenda.
