Princess Problems:
Exploring Heteronormative Stereotypes and Gender Disparity in Disney Films
Description
This creative project examines Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and Disney’s Frozen, focusing on how women are portrayed and treated. I use feminist literature as a lens to analyze both movies in the “Artist Piece” section. I believe it is important to scrutinize the way female characters are depicted because these movies are presented to children as idealized fairy tales. After critiquing both movies, I include a feminist retelling of Beauty and the Beast and Frozen. I use feminist literature to retell these fairy tales with empowered female depictions.
