Thoughts on The Dark Crystal
THOUGHTS ON
THE DARK CRYSTAL
| INTRODUCTION:
At the course they told us to pick a movie and analyse it. Since I was already researching Brian Froud, who designed almost everything and continues to make beautiful art.
At the course they told us to pick a movie and analyse it. Since I was already researching Brian Froud, who designed almost everything and continues to make beautiful art.
BUT after about a week of watching movies they forced us to choose from a list. This, in a word, was rather infuriating.
So here I am, sitting on an actual essay that is now actually redundant which means that I shall free it to live in the ether with the hopes that it helps someone sometime somewhere.

| INTRODUCTION:
Before we begin I ask you to bear in mind that the
Grimm brothers were master storytellers [1] but one thing that I've
noticed about their stories is that whenever a character is engaged in
something seemingly harmless it's only a matter of time before tragedy descends
and the entire situation spirals wildly out of control.
For example. Snow White was killed by a poison apple, Sleeping Beauty was enchanted for a 100 years through the clever use of a spinning wheel and Red Riding Hood was eaten by a wolf [2], Sometimes it's as if they were trying to do better and be just that little more gruesome with each story.

But not this gruesome |
Keeping this in mind it occurs to me that I've not
always being fair on the assorted Prince Charmings who ride through these
stories and rescue princess's from perils most dire [3].
While your average Prince has a pretty tough old time
fighting against the latest evil whilst remaining rather dashing it must be
said that the prince in this story has it pretty bad. How bad you ask? Well read on and find out.

| INTRODUCTION
You might have noticed that I'm late starting this monster challenge but that's because I've been wrestling with school in a futile attempt to get on top of assignments, lectures, reports and everything else [1]
