See the per-axis breakdownDoes "Goya's Ghosts" have woke/ideological content?
In ValorScore's editorial reading, "Goya's Ghosts" has ideological presence rated "Heavy". This is opinion backed by evidence, not a verdict: one cited example is “Inés (Natalie Portman), the young model and muse of the painter, is arrested on the false charge of heresy. Not even the interventions of the influential Brother Lorenzo (Javier Bardem), also portrayed by Goya, can prevent her from being brutally tortured in the Church's dungeons.” (A narrativa destaca o fanatismo e as acusações arbitrárias da Inquisição que levam a torturas nos porões da Igreja.). The overall ValorScore (cleanliness + value + audience rating) is 38/100. See every axis and its evidence in the breakdown below.
