fairy tale in dream

Fake ghost meets real ghost
and let a pair of swindlers beat the magic queen? It seems so absurd, but it is so in the Brothers Grimm. Although the brothers have no way to defeat magic, they know the direction of the story through fairy tales. Will at first didn't believe that the fairy tales Jack was talking about were what they were going through now, and he was stubborn and got a lot of trouble.
Another ancient story is interspersed in the development of the immortal Mirror Flower
Story. Hundreds of years ago, the queen encountered a plague when she was newly married, and after the king died, she built a tower with no entrance to lock herself in. She also killed everyone to usurp their magic, and eventually learned the art of immortality.
But immortality doesn't keep you looking good. The queen plans to capture the girls and trade their blood for her youth. Later, after the Brothers Grimm blew up the magic mirror, she also shattered like a mirror.
The trust between brothers
has a very deep memory in the camera. When Jack and Will came to the tower together, they mistakenly took the dagger held by the queen, causing them to kill each other. When the two were entangled, Will held the trust in his brother, let go of the hand holding the dagger, and let the brother's dagger inserted into his chest. Even a biological brother has the trust in his brother and resolutely gave up his life and let the other party save everything. This is definitely not escape, this is a kind of heroic righteousness!
hatred of invaders
I'm afraid there's a detail that you haven't noticed. When people in the village talk about the kidnapping of the child, it started when the French army invaded. Maybe it's the coincidence of the queen's plan and the aggression, but I believe more that this film expresses a kind of hatred for the aggressor, even nature is going to be outraged! At the end of the film, when the torture enthusiast said: "You are free", it not only covered the peace brought by the death of the queen to the village chief, but also represented the destruction of the generals and invaders!

The Brothers Grimm quotes

  • Hidlick: How comes he gets to do the monsters, I end up playin' the girlie ghosts?

    Will Grimm: Because you, my friend, have talent. You've got range.

    Bunst: And what do I have, Will?

    Will Grimm: You, my handsome friend, you have heart.

    Jacob Grimm: And you, Will, have enough bullshit to fill the Palace of Versailles.

  • Woodsman: Angelika, look. You see that window, way, way up high? Many centuries ago, that's where the Queen lived. She was treasured by all of Europe, famed for her incredible beauty, but also vain and selfish. Her world was her own reflection. It was on the Queen's wedding day that the plague arrived. The King was the first to die. His bride built a tower. She locked herself away, safe from the horrors below. But what she forgot, was that plague is carried on the winds. When she first fell sick, and her gorgeous flesh began to rot away, they say you could hear her screams across the oceans. My princess isn't afraid, is she? It's just an old story. Papa's here to protect you.
