Audience Representation

Racial audience not shown

Not enough of the cast has a researched race to score this honestly.

Why this is blank

Racial audience scores need at least half the actor cast classified. Below that line the page shows this note instead of a number. A blank is not a score of zero.

LGBTQ+
37

Faithfulness

Faithfulness not applicable

Faithfulness is scored only for adaptations.

Why this is blank

An original has no source text to compare. The score is left blank rather than shown as zero.
