Why the scores diverge

The 56-point gap reflects how much ideology steers each story on our six-dimension pass, not just vibes.

Scarface highlight: The dialogue primarily serves the gritty crime story and character development, with minimal overt ideological lecturing or message-driven exchanges.
Scarface: Characters are portrayed with depth and flaws, avoiding tokenistic insertions; their identities serve the narrative rather than symbolic representation.
