New Showbiz Analysis

Country Music (1972) offers a traditional perspective on a specific musical institution. It operates within the established social and cultural frameworks of its time, lacking modern characters who reflect more than one aspect of diversity. The documentary focuses on preserving a specific Western heritage. This focus results in a lack of diverse racial, gender, or LGBTQ+ perspectives, aligning with the mainstream industry standards of the early 1970s. Ultimately, the film maintains traditional hierarchies and lacks the inclusion of underrepresented identities necessary for a higher diversity score.
