In celebration of next Tuesday's (3/29) release of TANGLED on Blu-ray & DVD, we present you with this food for thought, and a fun embeddable widget full of awesome extras!
In the film, Mother Gothel (voiced by the lovely Donna Murphy) confines Rapunzel to a tower, telling her that it is for her own safety and protection. As a child, how many times did your parents tell you to simply trust in their judgement when deterring you from making a choice they did not agree with? As a parent, how many times have you tried to impart your wisdom to your child to spare them the pain of disappointment or failure?
A 70 foot tower might not be a viable option to protect children from the more difficult parts of life, and Mother Gothel might not have had the most selfless intentions, but the idea of a parent as a protector and guide for their child remains.
