Snow White
This was like the first time I've watched this movie in so long and, although it is a little annoying, it is much darker than most early Disney films. The evil queen is obsessed with be the most beautiful in the land that she orders a hit man to bring back Snow White's heart in a box. The idea of beauty to drive someone to murder another is an extreme of today's society. With shows on television that are driven by those who are beautiful, it seems that in today's world in order to be somebody you have to be beautiful. If, in a Disney movie, the villain is willing to cut out Snow White's heart to be the most beautiful person in the land, what would be today's equivalent of extreme measures to be number one? To measure a person by beauty before knowledge and personality is very shallow and in the end will get you no where. And in Snow White it will get you killed.
