#057 – Cinderella and Overcoming With Kindness

April 10, 2015Mikey Fissel Adaptation, Children, Fantasy, podcast, RWT0

On this episode of the Reel World Theology Podcast:

We definitely had our doubts about Disney making a live-action version of this age-old tale, but instead of giving it the reinterpretation or revisionist treatment, they simply gave us the story we knew– just really well done with a lot of heart. Our panel gets to talk about where we connected with the message of a film that seemed to some, regressive, but we argue, was actually one of the most empowering messages that you could try to tell in the current movie climate. That, sing-a-longs, and magical intervention, all on this episode.
