This fairy tale is not a fairy tale

Maybe ten years ago, I would like it. The chubby Snow White got beautiful magic shoes, and the handsome and brave Prince Merlin was cursed to become a green and fat dwarf.

"We have the same curse", this line is quite interesting. The happy ending of singing and dancing is very Disney. The film spends a lot of time to create a romantic scene between princesses and princes, but blurs the portrayal of characters and emotional lines .

Just saving her from monsters, picking flowers for her, and taking her on a magic broom is not enough for me to make her fall in love.

Snow White didn't either. When you are beautiful and slim, you can be forgiven for doing anything wrong, and when you show your true face, you don't even deserve a pair of beautiful shoes. When Fat Baixue was under siege, the part of setting Merlin to come back to save her really pokes me, and I have to sigh that the three settings of prince ➕ smart ➕ kind together are really lethal.

But when I saw it later, I felt that this kind of direction was a bit of a waste of the setting of the story. I had a hard time believing that when Arthur the dwarf didn't want to look at her, Bai Xue, who didn't want to look at her with his true face, could later say, "I used to be very Strong and strong, but I'm proud"; I also don't believe that Prince Merlin, who is obviously Yangou, can finally marry her sincerely. Earlier he said, "I know how to distinguish between inner beauty and outer beauty", and then after seeing Bai Xue's true face, whether to sit until the bonfire goes out or choose to leave. In the whole film, his heartbeat moment is always staring at Bai Xue's beautiful face. In the end, all he wants to love is "Bai Xue can like his green and short appearance".

The prince loves what he sees, but the princess loves what she feels.

If the story is that Bai Xue didn't get the red shoes and sought the help of these seven princes with her original face, then I don't think she would get anything but closed doors. But this kind of trend is even more exciting. The chubby Snow White and the cursed Archmage Merlin couldn't accept each other at first. The story moved forward through a strong contrast of stereotyped characters, and in the end they fell in love with each other. , this will deepen the theme more than the fact that he originally fell in love with a beautiful woman and finally chose to marry a fat girl.

Hey, it makes me want to write a little bit, it's really cool to lighten up fantasy.

Therefore, there is no single aesthetic to reflect on it. Maybe one day Prince Merlin will meet a girl who looks like red shoes, and a beautiful fairy tale will become a multi-player sports. Snow White could only stand under the apple tree and sigh deeply in those years when the apricot blossoms rained, you said that you were not Prince Merlin, I said that I prefer you who are green and short.

Everything was wrong from the start.
