Behind the fairy tale

When they were young, most girls had read fairy tales such as "Snow White" and "Cinderella" in their childhood, and most of the boys had heard of and read them. It can be said that these fairy tales are well-known at home and abroad. They have one thing in common, that is, there is a perfect ending-the princess and the handsome prince live happily together. Everyone has a heart for beauty, and everyone wants to look good. These fairy tales also pin people's yearning for beauty and a better life. But Fiona didn't follow the "calling routine" designed by her parents. Not only was she a monster, she also brought back her monster husband Shrek. When Fiona got out of the car, even her father sighed and said, "Is this our little boy? How did you become ugly?" Naturally, there was a dispute with the monster son-in-law Fiona during the meal. Not long after, an old fairy appeared. She was the fairy godmother in Cinderella. Her appearance makes people feel that she is a very kind fairy. She is also very matte and gorgeous in appearance. Coupled with her own fairy magic power, she immediately feels that this is a good persona and should be here to help Fiona. But in the following story, in order to make her son Fiona's husband, the fairy godmother cruelly separated Fiona and Shrek time and time again, and instructed the king to send someone to kill Shrek. When she was discovered, the "backbone" was naturally the king himself. . Unexpectedly, this is a ruthless character, it can be seen that this fairy is very good at disguising herself. Behind the second fairy tale that I did not expect was the king. At the end of the movie, the king was hit by the magic power of the godmother in order to protect his daughter from harm, and finally turned back into a frog. Before, the king had always followed the fairy godmother's instructions and agreed unconditionally. Later, he actually accepted Shrek in his heart, but he continued to help the fairy godmother. It turned out that the king not only felt that his daughter and the son of the godmother were more suitable, but also wanted to conceal his identity and not let the godmother make it public. The happiness of Fiona, which the godmother said before, is this. Once it is made public, he will no longer be the king, so it is impossible to imagine what happens. Going back to the beginning of the movie, when the king went to find Cinderella’s sister, a lipstick frog said to the king: "I seem to have seen you?" It turned out that at the beginning of the article, there was already a reminder. The true identity of our king. In this movie, there are many easter eggs, many of which are characters from other fairy tales that we are familiar with. Whether it is the king or the fairy godmother among other characters, they all reflect the unknown and negative side of the fairy tale. This is what impressed me the most in this movie.
