More details on the changes in the live action Snow White film

Almost missed this, but John Nolte at Breitbart had some more eyebrow raising details of what's been changed in the live action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves:
My primary takeaway from the trailer is that no amount of suspension of disbelief will ever sell the idea that Gal Gadot’s Evil Queen is beside herself with jealousy over Snow “Unibrowed” White’s beauty.

Then there’s this leaked scene, which is even worse: So, the dwarfs take in Snow White, and the smug girlboss shows her appreciation by … making them clean up. Isn’t Snow White supposed to be sympathetic?

One xweeter put it perfectly: “Wow. This version of Snow White is an entitled brat.”

Another wrote: “Wow she can’t even clean up. Is she paying rent at least?”

If you recall, in the original Snow White, with the help of her animal friends, Snow White shows her appreciation to the seven dwarfs and agrees to pull her weight for the free food and rent by cleaning the house — the one she broke into. What’s more, this whole sequence was about a bigger theme involving how much men and women need one another. The dwarfs provide for her. She civilizes them. That’s how the sexes work in a normal and civilized society. Now, only a dummy would take that message literally — men work, women clean. It’s not that at all. The sequence is a metaphor. Men protect. We’re bigger. We’re wired that way. But, on our own, we’re Neanderthals. Women make us better.
This sure gives a whole new, far more negative meaning to the recent slang of "girlboss". Making matters worse, this film is scripted by the overrated feminist filmmaker Greta Gerwig, whose previous movie based on the Barbie toy franchise made a billion through bait-and-switch tactics, and concealing its wokeness in advertising. Let's hope this time, they're not as successful in pulling the wool over the public's eyes with the new Snow Woke. That Gadot took part in this, clearly without reservations as far as the woke themes are concerned, only makes me all the more disillusioned with her as an Israeli-born actress.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green

  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
