"The Princess and the Frog" is the first black princess to appear in Disney's "Princess Series" fairy tales. Compared with the previous image of a white princess with bright eyes and bright teeth, this bold change can be described as a big attempt. . In addition, the background of the film is also set in New Orleans in the United States, which is the land of black people and the hometown of jazz, which brings the audience a different urban and rural atmosphere. "The Princess and the Frog" completely subverts the plot of the classic "Frog Prince" in "Grimm's Fairy Tales", and re-describes the love story of a new century woman with strong career and independent self-improvement. It is full of modernity and is very popular with female audiences.

The Princess and the Frog quotes

  • [to his voodoo "friends", which resemble masks]

    Dr. Facilier: Friends, I know I'm in hock to y'all pretty deep already, but it seems our little froggy prince lost his way. And I need your generous assistance getting him back.

    [the heads glare]

    Dr. Facilier: [laughs nervously] I hear you. Now, what's in it for you? Well, as soon as I dispose of "Big Daddy" La Bouff, then I'm gonna run this town. I'll have the entire city of New Orleans in the palm of my hand. And you'll have all the wayward souls your dark little hearts desire. You all love that, don't you? So, we got ourselves a deal?

    [the heads contemplate for a moment, then release shadow spirits into the room]

    Dr. Facilier: [laughs] NOW we're cookin'! We're gonna find ourselves a frog. Search everywhere, the bayou, the quarter... bring him to me alive. I need his heart pumping... for now.

  • Prince Naveen: Lawrence! Glad to see you're finally getting into the music. Do you get my joke? Because your head is, it's in the tuba.
