DEFENSE OF SNOW WHITE RUNNING INTO (AND IN) THE FOREST
(author's note: Snow White will forever be my favourite princess... I also have thoughts about her apology afterwards but I'll post that later when I actually put it into words and write it)
1. RUNNING INTO THE FOREST
Firstly, Snow White goes from picking wildflowers, humming “One Song” to herself, helping a baby bird… to nearly being killed and realizing that everything that had just happened (=break from being virtually slave) was for that purpose.
Out of self-preservation - and not weakness - she runs into the forest. As of now, she has nothing to defend herself against the queen (not to mention she is all too powerful to face at this time)
Don’t think she would have thought this since she had no time to process anything (and so being panicked and confused is a very valid reaction), but thinking about it, what would running away have done for her? On foot, she couldn’t really get too far. Via the magic mirror, the queen would know where she is. What if the huntsman changes his mind and followed her in? What if the queen had hired another huntsman to kill her?… however, despite all this, Snow White running away would buy herself some time and maybe she could gain allies?
Running away was really the only thing she could have done. (Certainly she couldn’t return to anywhere near the palace)
2. RUNNING IN THE FOREST
Now I know this following daftar may come across as pedantic (even fanatic) but I strong feel that if I am to komentar on her forest experience, I shouldn't do it from my own comforts - but from her point of view. Thus, I had to re-enact her situation and really imagine what it was like...
Let’s look at each cut of that forest scene and see what Snow White went through:
• Runs into a dark mysterious forest. Firstly, forest can have dangerous binatang (=bears, snakes, bees, etc.. (even people)) Particularly wolves; just ask Belle atau Anna. However, unlike them, Snow is totally alone and without anything - just the clothes she had on.
• Makes her way through the vines (and maybe branches) She could get entangled in them. They could be rough atau thorny, atau halaman awal to biting bugs atau allergenic plants.
• An owl screeches and flies out at her. Soon after, it’s bats. Unknown binatang flying out from the shadows can overstimulate the senses and surprise anyone.
• Then her dress is snagged oleh branches and she falls into bush. Luckily it was just her dress as not only could it have cut atau scratched her, but those might have also infected her.
• Sees faces in the shadows (see psychology)
• Falls back first down a sinkhole. Amazingly she escapes serious injury (even death?) But even with her loss of balance, she somehow grabs onto a vine (luckily strong enough to support her)
• Literally clinging for her life, the vine breaks (or she lets go) and she falls into a pond of unknown depth. Who knows what hazards (=animals, rocks, underwater sinkhole?) are in there?
• Now she’s completely soaked in swap water and she doesn’t know what’s “swimming” around with her. Apart from the idea that the logs are crocodiles, that’s not to say logs aren’t dangerous. They can do the same things that branches and bushes do, as well as trip her in the pond.
• Luckily the pond was shallow enough for her to stand and desperately wade to shore. Now, all wet, the wind picks up and would freeze her to the bone. At this point, realistically, she’s cold, wet, dirty, smelly, and disoriented.
• Again chased oleh bats, but now with wind and leaves, it seems everywhere she goes is either a natural barrier (=dead end) atau some sort of animal/monster.
• Psychology. Her frightened imagination and over-stimulated eyes and ears create the forest as a surreal psychological nightmare. Personally, I think it’s prompted (and probably symbolic) of the queen: the queen is watching her and out to catch her.
3. SHE CRIES
The fact she survives the forest is nearly a miracle. But apart from that, Snow White is a 14 tahun old girl who is innocent and has a kind, gentle personality. Although she was virtually a slave before, at least she wasn’t fearing for her life. Now she has just learned that the most powerful person in the kingdom (=Queen) wants to kill her.
It’s all too much for her and she cries… as would many would in her situation I suspect.

In my opinion, considering what she’s just been through and how the forest was a surreal nightmare, crying is completely understandable. And running away does not, in any way, tampil weakness.

It's always the quiet, innocent ones...
2. The one everyone THINKS is going to survive at the end-Mulan atau Pocahontas
In horror movies, the one anda THINK is going to survive the whole thing dies.
3. The one who ACTUALLY survives at the end-Cinderella atau Belle
In horror movies, one of the lebih innocent ones live.
4. Most likely to be the prime suspects-Merida, Rapunzel, atau Ariel
The killer is always white, and Merida, Rapunzel, and Ariel are the only white princesses left.
5. Most likely to die first-Jasmine atau Tiana
Of course the colored people always get it first...Horror movie stereotypes :P Anyone wanna bet how many menit into the movie until one of them gets it?
Since I am trying to make the Princess Of The bulan lebih popular, this is another one of my ideas. In the end of each bulan I'll post articles, based on the countdowns for songs, hairstyles and outfits. There everybody will have the chance to discuss whether they agree with the results, what corresponded to their expectations, and what they wish would have been different!
I was recently informed that the problem with the pictures in the artikel is gone, and now the pictures can be put inside the text. However, I'm going to continue using mainly pictures for my articles, because first of all, that's what I've been doing for the rest of the artikel from these series, and second, I like this way of doing articles! So maybe at some point I will switch back to the explanatory and sophisticated words articles, but for the time being I will stick to my picture articles!
Here are the results of the POTM Hairstyles Countdown: ~*Snow White*~ (April 2013)! Enjoy and share your opinion!
