What We Think

'The Miracle of Morgan’s Creek' is a classic example of largely non-woke Hollywood. It puts humor and narrative first, leaving modern ideological concerns almost entirely at the door.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on storytelling and character-driven comedy rather than social ideology. The characters are not defined primarily by identity politics but by situation and personality, so narrative integrity remains nearly untouched by 'woke' influence.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

While poking gentle fun at small-town America and norms, the film mostly upholds traditional values about family, community, and marriage. It approaches moral dilemmas with humor, not ideological subversion. No attempt is made to undermine faith, masculinity, or cultural roots.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is no overt ideological preaching, and various perspectives, anxieties, and foibles are depicted among characters. Traditional and dissenting viewpoints are allowed, often for comedic effect, rather than being mocked or villainized.
