Athenian theater goers familiar with the legends and stories of ancient Greece is the audience for whom "Oedipus Rex" was written by Sophocles

(495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Sophocles was born in Colonus, the place of Theban King Oedipus' death. Colonus and Thebes were both near Athens, where Sophocles spent his adult life and established his reputation as a leading dramatist of ancient Greece. Athenians enjoyed the theater and tended to be well informed about local stories and legends. As a competitive and well educated dramatist, Sophocles knew how to put his talents and Athenian proclivities to effective, lucrative use on Athens' local stages.

It depends which film. The 1936 and 1954 films were aimed at an adult audience. The 1968 film also aimed at an adult audience, but because it used teenaged actors, it caught the fancy of a number of people in the teen agegroup. The 1996 film is primarily aimed at people in their teens and twenties but is also attractive to older people.

It's not exactly a highbrow play, and clearly was not aimed at the feminist market. So, lowbrow males were the target.
