  1. I just love your vdeos. This time I would like to add sometihng about Snow White .I think she resembles a lot Deanna Durbin in Three Smart Girls and mainly in One Hundred Man and a Girl., wnen she sings It´s raining sunbeens impossoble not thinking of Snow White. And this incnludes the ribbon.

  2. As much as I love Jean Harlow, the features you're describing applied to basically every actress in the 1930s. The actress and dancer Marge Champion inspired Snow White. She even sometimes served as a live action reference 🙂

  3. About Cinderella/Grace Kelly theory, Cinderella gown is silver not blue ( despite later renditions of it) but Kelly was the perfect to based Cinderella off . I don't agree with the Conelly/ Jasmine parallels they don't look nothing alike. I don't know why Disney didn't make a princess based on Vivian Leigh, that woman was absolutely gorgeous. I'd also like to see a princess based off Selena Gomez or Zendaya

  4. Pocahontas is my fave along w Merida. They both represent my actual heritage! Both are brave, beautiful & Pocahontas was ONLY Disney Princess based on actual historical Princess:)

  5. Jessica Rabbit was reportedly a "Frankenstein's Monster" of Old Hollywood actresses like Betty Grable's legs, Mae West's breasts, Marilyn Monroe's torso, Bette Davis's eyes, Joan Crawford's lips and eyebrows, Veronica Lake's hair style and onscreen persona, Rita Hayworth's hair color, Lauren Bacall's speaking voice, and Judy Garland's singing voice.

  6. It's so striking to me to see this dancer with this fit, strong, but also very pin-up-girl-rounded-looking body that inspired Tinkerbell, and yet it's all her mannerisms in Tinkerbell and none of her actual body. Tinkerbell is slight in every way, with small shoulders and arms, stick-like legs, an impossibly thin waist and not even much bust, as compared with other disney leads. Maybe this is all about what Disney knew people associate with pixies physically, but it feels very opposite to Margret Kerry's strong, grounded, fleshy roundness – even tinkerbell hair and chin has become more pointed. It's to much to ask for the time, but it really hurts to see that body replaced, because it's already an atheletically and asthetically aspirational body, but it couldn't be the immage for this fantasy, apparently. Sadly, one of the better excuses you can also make for this is how often Tinkerbell's body, as this featherlight flying thing in Peter Pan, get flicked, knocked and shoved about, out of the air and into various traps and so on. It's hard not to notice in Peter Pan today.
