#cinderella has so many good possibilities for a modern socially-relevant film

[bastart13]

What I'd give for one of the Cinderella remakes to go into how when you're in an isolated and abusive situation, sometimes you need to be saved and you're not weak if you can't escape by yourself

I've never been a fan of bad faith reinterpretations of fairy tales, especially ones which flatten the originals into "princesses is saved by a prince and nothing else", to then go #girlboss. The princess can save herself because she's a strong female character! (Implying if you're in a bad situation, it's because you're not strong enough to get out)

#disney #cinderella #princess #prince charming #disney princess #art #this isn't my best art but i wanted to get these sketches out #cinderella has so many good possibilities for a modern socially-relevant film #so many people lack agency in their lives and try to find moments to feel freer #and the prince could be a good example of how to use wealth/influence #i want my film with the prince figuring out this stranger's in a bad situation and doing what he can to get her out #and doing it mostly platonically #and then having the chance to fall in love after
