Villain

It’s just another day for me. Another day to be slayed by the knight and watch in envy as he carries the princess to ‘safety’. My life is only a fairytale. A fairytale in which I am the villain and the knight is the hero. I never wanted to be born like this and I mostly certainly don’t want it to continue happening. However, it cannot come to a halt.

Imprisoned for a triple homicide in 1966, Norman Jewison uses…

the looks of it the villain had it all. Most non- animated Disney movies, the protagonist somehow ends up doing something that upsets the antagonist while also taking away some of the attention the villain of the movie loves. This leads the bad guy/girl to do all the bad things in the movie.
