Should all the princesses be pretty? Should all the princes be handsome? In Shrek, all the things are different! Should all princesses be pretty
? Should all princes be handsome? In "Shrek", this is not the case!
——Inscription ; In our imagination, all the creatures in fairy tales are perfect. The princesses are all beautiful and effeminacy; the princes are all tall and handsome (and they usually ride a white horse). The knights are cool, brave, loyal guys; the fairies are tiny little people. All the spells are evil; all the step-mothers are bad. In the past cartoons, everyone has a what-it-should-be face, and everything goes on a what-it-should -be way. But Shrek breaks them whole.
In our imagination, all the characters in the fairy tale world should be perfect. All princesses are beautiful and delicate, all princes are tall and handsome, (they usually ride white horses), knights should be cold, brave, and loyal people, and elves should be super small people. All spells are evil, all stepmothers are bad. In the cartoons of the past, what kind of person has what kind of face, and everything develops according to the pattern. However, "Shrek" broke all of this.
The film begins with a typical Disney fairytale pattern, but such a romantic beginning is “destroyed” by Shrek's big laugh. “That is not gonna happen! ”Yes, every mean-to-be thing is not gonna happen in Shrek.
电影以The typical Disney fairy tale mode begins, but the beginning of this romance is ruined by Shrek's laughter. "This is impossible!" Yes, all things that are taken for granted will not happen in Shrek.
The leading role is no longer a prince or a princess; instead, it is an ugly stink ogre. The princess who be cast a spell is not that effeminacy and beautiful. The prince (indeed a lord of a castle) is a person who is "In short supply". The donkey is a chatter box, and the dragon is female. @_@
The protagonist is no longer a prince and princess, but is replaced by an ugly, smelly monster; and the cursed princess is not so beautiful and delicate; and the prince (actually just a castle owner) is a "supply Shortage" (*Note: Use the translation of economics for economics). The donkey is a chatterbox, and the fire-breathing dragon is a girl.
In the past fairy tales, spells are thought to be cast on prince, but in Shrek, the spell is cast on the princess. In the past fairy tales, people is enchanted to become ugly, but in Shrek, Fiona is enchanted to be beautiful . in the past fairy tales, dragons are terrible snake-like monster, but in Shrek, it is a lovely, friendly girl, and it (she) falls in love with the donkey. ||| _ |||
fairy in the past Here, the curse is all imposed on the prince, while in "Shrek", the curse is imposed on the princess; in the fairy tales of the past, the person who is cast will become ugly, but in "Shrek", Princess Fiona was cursed to be "beautiful"; in the fairy tales of the past, the dragon was a terrible snake-shaped monster, but in "Shrek", it was a cute and friendly girl, and she also fell with a donkey In love...
“Ogres are like onions, They have layers.” Actually, People are the same. The way we know someone just like the way we peel the layers of onions. As we “peel” them layer by layer, we may come to find it Quite different from what we see from the outside. The more layers we peels, the deeper we know about them.
"Monsters are like onions, they have layers." In fact, people are the same. The way we know someone is like we peel an onion. As we peel layer by layer, we will gradually find that (what we see) is completely different from what we see from the outside. The more we peel, the better we know about them.
That makes me occur to the other movie Legally Blonde. In this movie, the situation of the heroine is opposite. People think little of her just because she is too blonde. Though Shrek and Legally blonde are quite different movies, they both tell us the same truth: We should not judge someone just by what he/she looks like, because it is not what he/she really is.
This reminds me of another movie "The Lawful Beauty", in which the heroine is the opposite. People don't take her seriously, just because she is too beautiful. Although "Shrek" and "The Pretty Lady in Law" are so different, they both tell us the same truth: we cannot judge a person by appearance, because this is not their true self.
