It's not golden flowers that change fate

When Eugene exhausted his last strength to cut Rapunzel's long hair, my heart trembled. In fact, they are all this age. What fairy tales have not been seen before? ! What happy ending will you fail to guess? How can you still be obsessed with Disney cartoons? ! But this Disney's return to tradition is still enough to make me happy, and even the slow motion of Eugene struggling to cut his blonde hair surprised me and moved me.
I have to say, even though I like the part where I dance happily in small towns-there is music that washes away the Nordic style and the joy is overflowing; I also like the part where two people sit on a small wooden boat and watch the sky lanterns- -The sky full of lights creates a romantic atmosphere and a dreamy sweet night; but my favorite scene is the moment when Eugene cuts off the princess's long golden hair. The moment he gave up his life in exchange for the freedom of the princess, he changed what fates design.
The princess's long golden hair has the magic of that golden flower in it. Every time she wants to use magic, she will sing that song, one of which is: change what fates design. The original meaning of the lyrics probably refers to the magical power of golden flowers that people don’t have to grow old like destiny, so when I saw the lyrics at first, I only thought of the witch Ge Duo. However, from another angle, Rapunzel's fate was arranged. She had to be locked in a small tower by a witch because of her magical blond hair. Even she herself was asking "When will my life begin?"-and she actually lived for 18 years. It's just that she never thought that the blond hair that could "change the arrangement of fate" was the source of her destiny.
Some commented that the male protagonist Eugene is a rogue and thief, and is completely unmatched with the status of a princess. Even the witch Godo sneered and said that the wanted man made her "proud" of Rapunzel. This combination reminds me of my favorite "Aladdin". Princess Jasmine, who is so lonely that she can only play with tigers, also has a personality yearning for freedom (this pet is better than a chameleon), and Aladdin is just a street thief (also chased by soldiers to the ends of the world). To put it simply, in fairy tales, everyone only pays attention to whether two people love each other, not whether they have the same social status.
However, what I really want to say is that Disney just wants to express this theme: true love will lead you to discover who you are. If he (she) is your true love, he (she) will show you a broader and new world-not only the sky full of sparks and lights, but more importantly, let you know yourself again. Eugene made the princess see the sky lantern she had dreamed of for 18 years. For the first time in her life, her life was clearly presented before her eyes, and for the first time she clearly realized that she belonged to this vast and colorful world. The same is true for Eugene, the princess lights up his dreams, and his nightmarish life disappears. Disney just wants to tell us: each other can let each other see the dream of life, then this is the combination of true love, there is no difference in status.
In order to free the princess from the bondage, Eugene gave up the only chance to save her life and cut off her magical long blond hair-slow motion was used in the animation-this is a break of the imprisonment, the princess is ordinary, but also free. . It was not the magical golden flower that changed the destiny in the end, but true love. This is the usual theme of Disney.
It seems a bit wrong to watch cartoons at such an age...but I have never indulged in reality. I have never indulged in the dream stories of princes and princesses because of the beauty of Disney animation, but it always makes me cherish love and touch. Look at the world. Every time those moving melody sounded, I still couldn't help but smile, as if a world spread out before my eyes, crystal clear.
