I just read the plot of this and somehow it gets worse???
the dwarfs are princes under a curse. In order to break the spell, they need a pair of magic red shoes. But currently the red shoes are owned by Snow White, who, get this, has “let herself go” but when she wears the shoes, they show how beautiful she is on the inside—aka thin.
So basically in order for the princes to break the curse, they have to doom Snow White to a life of fatness. why do they hate us so much.
Saw the movie recently and that’s literally not the plot at all
The advertisement group was disgusting af and when the movie came out it was actually nothing like those ads
The princes need to be loved by a “beautiful” woman but what’s beautiful is an opinion.
Snow white loves her size and strength (yeah she lifts!) but her dad goes missing and no man was willing to help her until she ended up in those red shoes. She doesn’t like what the shoes make her into. She just likes finally being helped.
It’s a love story between her and one of the dwarves where He needs to learn to not judge himself or other’s based off appearances
Spoilers but they get together at the end
He’s a prince again and she stays her cute fat self
Not only do they end up loving each other as they are but the prince also learns to love himself which he really… didn’t for most of the movie because he was so focused on how he looked, obsessively so (granted, I do believe the dialogue this was delivered through was a lil bit clunky but it IS a Korean written movie and sometimes translations from korean to english can sound odd)
But to go back to the matter of fat snow white, as a matter of fact, it is implied throughout the movie that she is under her own curse which is actually the shoes that make her thin and that’s because she likes how she truly looks like, and in the end, when the red shoes are no more and shes fat, that’s when the prince tells her he believes her to be the most beautiful woman in the world and finally means it, having overcome his superficiality
AND that lil shit is smitten with snow white, who remains very much fat and beautiful, by the end of it, just look at him, that heart literally came from his blush I think
Not to mention that the official instagram of the animation studio behind this, I believe Sidus they’re called? I’m on mobile I can’t look it up rn. Anyway, on their official instagram, they rarely ever post art of snow white as red shoes (her thin version) aside from promotional posters and stuff which is intentional. Heres a couple more images of them being cute and in love as themselves
Please support this film if it gets to your country!
Like, as a fat girl, I would have killed to watch a movie like this when I was younger and now that I did watch it, it feels so odd that a fat female protagonist is the subject of affection, exactly because theres a lack of movies that feature that and this is an amazing step in the right direction. This movie has such an important message and it explores superficiality, discrimination of fat people and self love brilliantly for a kids movie and its gonna get buried,,, because the Cannes did the worst possible job at marketing and because of a very black and white tumblr mindset,,,
Also idk if that’s important to anyone else but all the princes have different implied nationalities, theres a british one, a Scottish one, an Irish one, a french one and three italian ones and some portrayals can be a bit stereotypical ngl but it’s just pretty rad to hear accents that arent british or American in a market oversaturated by these countries
SPOILER: The end credits also show three of the other princes meeting other girls who might not fit society’s expectations, in varying ways. One is a literal werewolf, one is a reverse mermaid, and Sleeping Beauty apparently has bad table manners/a voracious appetite. (Hard to say if that’s just her usual or because she hadn’t eaten during her enchanted sleep though…) And those three pairs fall in love, and it’s implied that the three princes’ curses broke offscreen.
Because they, like Merlin, were kissed by “the most beautiful woman in the world.”
little girls who go around after it rains and pick up the worms off the sidewalk and throw them back in the dirt are the cornerstone of our society and we should all strive to have that level of compassion for each other and for the natural world
i love student housing. i’m in the common room waiting for a friend and there’s some dude crying on the couch w a bunch of his friends around him and i can only hear bits and pieces but someone asked him “who gets the minecraft server if you guys break up?” and he started crying harder and a 3rd person reached over to smack the guy who asked it on the back of the head
