Here Comes Peter Cottontail (1971)
Love love lobe
I grew up watching this with my mom and I love it to this day. I find myself singing songs from the movie year round. The stop motion is excellent and Vincent price is great as iron tail. This is a great Easter film to watch with the family and if you're like me you'll watch this year round
The Princess and the Frog (2009)
A joy
As a young black woman, I love this movie. Many people, I have heard, take issues with this movie due to a varies number of reasons: 1. the princess spends the bulk of the movie as a frog 2. the prince is NOT African, but Latin, and is financially ruined 3. the person that guides Tiana is a wrinkled old woman, that practices voodoo, instead of being a lovely fairy 4. Tiana works two jobs, and doesn't seem to be able to get any where in life To these I say boo on you. I think that this movie, above ALL other Disney movies, gives little girls a realistic idea of how one should live their life. Tiana is a hard working, independent black woman, and I think that she is a great role model for little girls. It doesn't matter that she spends the bulk of the movie as a frog. Her flaw is that she works too hard to accomplish what she wants out of life. I think I would prefer if when I had a daughter she look up to Tiana than have her look up to the likes of Aurora or Snow White. I like that Disney has shown interracial relationships. I don't think that it diminishes the movies charm just because Naveen is a Latin male. I think that no matter what Disney does, no one will every be happy. I have oftern heard this movie called racist and again I say boo. It is set in the 1920's and the way they Tiana and Charlotte are friends shows that they are attempting to push past their norm. I beg people to see the charm and beauty in this film, and for people of color to be proud that we finally have a princess that our little girls can aspire to be.
