Question 1

Is Lady Bird woke?

Accepted Answer

Lady Bird has a woke score of 27/100, which means it is not especially woke compared with higher-scoring titles. Lady Bird is a 2017 coming-of-age comedy-drama about a headstrong 17-year-old girl in 2002 Sacramento who renames herself, clashes with her mother over college plans and independence, and navigates first loves, friendships, school, and family financial pressures before heading to New York. The narrative centers personal identity formation and a complex mother-daughter relationship from a distinctly female viewpoint, with a visible queer subplot involving a supporting character. These elements create recurring but personal identity focus without activist dialogue, institutional lectures, or diversity signaling.
