I adore PG - she's hysterically funny when she least means to be, and what a drama queen! I'm spending a precious Saturday night in hibernation for one of our regular sleepovers, but her commentary on this DVD is entertainment enough.
The highlights for me, without a doubt, have been:
Intro V/O: "..For who could truly ever love a Beast?"
PG: "Hasn't he watched this movie yet? Doesn't he know how it ends?"
Beauty & Beast on the sweeping balcony, swept up in a romantic moment.
PG: "Uh oh. Is he going to push her off the edge?"
So while I understand that a lot of people are concerned with the rise of 'princess culture' and its impact on young children, and in particular little girls, I don't foresee a time when I'll hesitate before popping a Disney movie in the DVD player.
It appears as though the cynicism which runs deep in my family certainly hasn't skipped a generation.
