If you are taking your children to see the movie \u201cFrozen<\/a>\u201d and you do not want to know how the movie ends, please do not read this. I will give away the ending.<\/p>\n

I went to see \u201cFrozen\u201d yesterday with some of my grandchildren. It is a Disney movie<\/a>. One of the things that I noticed about the movie was how much Disney<\/a> movies have changed. I enjoyed \u201cTangled<\/a>\u201d (Disney\u2019s take on Rapunzel<\/a>), but noticed that the future prince charming in that movie had a rather checkered past. He was not like the Disney princes of old. That was a change. \u201cFrozen\u201d included a character who seemed to be a prince charming, but turned out to be a cad interested only in himself. I am not sure that belonged in a fairy tale (which was essentially what \u201cFrozen\u201d is). Visually the movie was rather dark for the majority of the movie.<\/p>\n

I remember that in the sixties that the feminist movement was objecting to Disney movies\u2014they didn\u2019t like the idea of the heroine riding off into the sunset with the handsome prince and \u201cliving happily ever after.\u201d They felt that was an idea that was damaging to young girls. Well, in \u201cFrozen,\u201d they got their wish\u2014Prince Charming<\/a> is a cad. The man who wins the princess is a common laborer\u2014he is a prince of a man, but he is not of royal lineage.<\/p>\n

I am not sure if \u201cFrozen\u201d was trying to send a message. However, if the feminists were opposed to Snow White<\/a> and Cinderella<\/a> because of the messages in those movies, is it a stretch to think that if given a chance, they would try to put their message in a movie?<\/p>\n

Anyway, \u201cFrozen\u201d is good entertainment, and I suppose it\u2019s not a bad idea to tell little girls that the person who appears to be prince charming may not be.<\/p>\n
