Brave: Redefining Princess

(c) Disney Pixar

I won't be posting a new Disnerd review here until later this week, because I spent my weekend writing about the new Pixar film Brave for InterVarsity's blog!

Here's an excerpt:

"Brave certainly brings a refreshing “Pixar-ness” to the princess genre by presenting a flawed, messy heroine, whose journey runs entirely without a hint of romance and whose mother is neither dead nor evil. But the film is not merely a 100-minute long two-dimensional feminist mantra either.

Merida isn’t so much an “atypical” princess as she is a woman redefining what it means to be a true princess."
