Even Cowgirls Get the Blues1994

In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

“Even Cowgirls Get the Blues” is practically a bingo card for 1990s counterculture and early wokeness, where narrative, tradition, and pluralism all play second fiddle to progressive themes. Subtlety? Never heard of her.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The movie leans heavily into promoting non-traditional identities and themes, often emphasizing sexual and gender expression over organic character growth. It appears that representation was prioritized, sometimes at the cost of engaging storytelling or coherent character arcs, making the narrative feel secondary to the ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional values, family, religion, masculinity, are subverted or outright mocked. The film: champions free love, alternative lifestyles, and critiques conventional relationships and social structures, all while positioning these as the new gold standard, leaving little room for respect for tradition.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The narrative largely only offers one acceptable worldview, with traditional perspectives treated dismissively or cartoonishly. Those who don't embrace the film's progressive perspective are seldom given a fair or sympathetic treatment, culminating in a pretty one-note ideological atmosphere.
