The topic today is on disney movies and the symbolism and message that movies are maybe trying to send little kids. There are many disney movies that hold allot of messages, but i'm only focusing on a few of their movies. One movie is called The Little Mermaid, another is Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs. When looked at closely anyone can see the very grown up every day things some men and women go through.
The first thing i'm going to talk about is the fact that in disney movie they expose little kids to very grown up problems that for som e happen in their every day life. In little mermaid is this important rich in authority girl daughter of king triton. She complains about not being happy, about her wanting more than what she already have. the villan of the movie of the movie make a deal with ariel ti make her human and say's things like men don't want a women that can talk and they like women that can cook. This is pretty much saying that women don't have a say in anything, that just appost to clean and do everything men say.
In Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs the message in this movie is saying that women are lost with out men to protect them, and guid them. In the movie Snow White is this helpless girl that's so sweet and innocent in a world of wrong doings, and she dosen't understand the danger around her. We she got in trouble or did something she should't of done the dwarfs were there to help her. Even in the ending when she'sa put under a spell and stuck in an endless sleep a man is the one that had to help her wake. In this movie men are figurer's that control women's fate and it's showing that women need constant protection.
All these movies show that in disney princess movies they have some kind of way to show a representation of the real world and real life problems. In the movies they show the problems of love, marriage, and different levels of wealth. Disney movies have been doing this for years and years and their trying to expose younger viewers to adult problems early in life. What disney is doing is a bad thing because some viewers might take it the wrong way and create something else out of it. But it's also a god idea because then viewers can have a better understanding now so they can be better to deal with it in the future.
