note to self: you are an intelligent woman. forgive yourself for all the times you were stupid and naive. you are a woman of heart. forgive yourself for the times you were soft when you should have been hard.
People forget that in the Disney fairy tale films, wishes and dreams represented hope: specifically, hope for a better future when current times were tough. The movies were made for people who lived through the Great Depression and Second World War. Snow White and Cinderella were survivors of abuse who wanted to be loved, Pinocchio wanted to become and be recognized as a real person, Bambi and Dumbo lost their mothers and had to find their own ways in the world. But these characters all held onto hope via their wishes and dreams.
So it feels a little demoralizing when modern Disney films try to deconstruct "wishes and dreams" as passive acts. They're trying to tell people to pick themselves up by the bootstraps, because nothing's gonna change unless you change something. Which is true, I guess.
But deconstructing wishes and dreams feels a bit like deconstructing hope itself. And maybe I'm reaching with that connection, but it doesn't sit right with me.
