Kerilyn Musnuff Once Upon A Time The character I chose is Snow White, in Once Upon A Time, Snow White is much like she is in other versions except some things she does and says are different than the other versions we have read so far. There was a curse put on Snow White and Prince Charming and the only way they could get rid of the curse is by giving up their daughter, Emma. They were to meet again when she turns 28. In Once Upon A Time, Snow White never gets much rest. She is very worried…

Every great film starts out with a base. Some form of origination, or a simple idea. The most famous writers that are responsible for Disney’s popular movies are the Grimm Brothers. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were German-Born authors born in the 1700’s. They are most famous for their collection of stories which were published in 1812 called Nursery and Household tales, but were later referred to as Grimm’s Fairy Tales. Initially, the book was not meant for children’s readings as they had contained…

Kit sat in the car with both hands on the wheel the engine off. He was outside suspected hiding place of an at large fugitive. Markus Cranor who held up a bank and shot three people during the robbery. They had gotten the rest of his team, but Cranor manage to get away. For a while at least. Now thanks to the brilliant minds of his good friend and the rest of the CSI team and science they were able to track possible places he might be. He sat outside one of those places in an unmarked car…

Fairest Snow White, a vision of raven hair, fair skin and a gentle disposition. She is beautiful and kind, in the original story. Connolly’s version of Snow White is somewhat disgusting, but it brings great humor to the tale. The dwarfs had tried to kill Snow White, unsuccessfully, but their tale is told with a sarcastic humor. “[W]e feed her an apple: chomp-chomp, snooze- snooze, weep-weep, ‘poor Snow White, we-will-miss-her-so-but-life-goes-on” (Connolly 127). The dwarfs do not love…

‘Frozen,’ All About Olaf A funny, innocent snowman that seems to be just a funny secondary character steals the show in Disney’s “Frozen.” Olaf the snowman is much more than a comic relief character or a sidekick. He is the manifestation of “agape” love, or the unconditional love that should be given to all people. How could a snowman that comically fantasizes about experiencing summer for the first time be so crucial to a story about love? The movie was created for children, and there is no…

feminism has changed some of the gender roles, women still have similar expectations set upon them by society that of being beautiful and kind will aid them in their life's journey. In the Grimm brothers story, Snow White has just been discovered by the seven dwarves who have just came home, instead of being angry at her for breaking in, they " let the light fall on her" to see her beauty. The light imagery used to describe snow white is repeated throughout the text, conveying the pure and…

The royal beauty lay unconscious in bed with heart-shaped lips, glossy fluffy hair and all the pathetic-ness in the world. Prince Charming was under the sleep spell, and every finger on his hands, every hair on his head lay still. “HAI – YA!” The door was kicked open and in came Snow White, Cinderella and a very cross Sleeping Beauty. Prince Charming woke up with a start and yawned. “Oh good, you’re here” he said, and sat up whilst reaching for his mirror, that said on the frame “Your hair…

who wished to be known for more than her looks, her voice, and her clothing. Sound familiar? This sentence is usually the entire premise of a fairy tale. There is a young girl, an evil adversary, and a sidekick, or sidekicks. In Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Snow White is known as the “fairest of them all,” and an evil Queen wishes to kill her because of her looks. The Evil Queen asks her Magic Mirror who the fairest of them all is, and at first, the Magic Mirror lies to her, just to get the…

Henrik Ibsen’s ‘A Doll’s House’ went into production in December 1879 and was a triumph in Scandinavia and Germany. It did not garner the same praise in Europe as the London productions (1889) were criticised, the subject matter was interpreted as offensive and the representation of women was viewed as harmful (Worrall). This final interaction between Nora and Torvald is crucial as it is the powerful denouement. The analysis of this scene will encompass discussions of the elements of…
