Others may focus on the healing potentials of the magical hair. Some will identify with a person needing to discover the world. Deep messages lurk in old stories whether filmmakers intend them or not.Д®ach member of the audience will likely see their own movie. I know this is grand language for a family movie, but the wisdom of folklore does carry such large notions. The symbolism could imply a destiny that is reaching toward us, hoping to be noticed. The imagery suggests a transcendent sense of purpose.

The place of belonging may be a faint memory, but it calls. This suggests home is longing for us as much as we yearn to find it. The whole country launches the floating lights in the hope she is alive and will see them. It turns out those lanterns are sent aloft by her parents as an annual ceremony of remembering her. The film even has an underwater scene that suggests a night-sea journey through our deepest fears. The subsequent adventure represents a process of discovery. Her insecurities reflect our own ambivalence about claiming larger possibilities. She has mixed feelings about leaving the familiar limits of mother and tower. Rapunzel's moments of difficult transition are familiar to anyone who has survived adolescence. Many people are content to stay close to the familiar, but explorer types need to investigate the mysteries. She could represent a seeker on the journey to illumination.

Also, we're all thieves, in the sense of stealing attention away from expected activities.

Surely, we all have orphan feelings down inside somewhere. Fully half the script is now about Flynn Rider, a dashing rogue of a thief who grew up in an orphanage. Some of the changes actually added depth to the story. The final script emphasizes the resourceful independence of the heroine. Co-director Nathan Greno thought such dark elements would be too intense for a general audience. In the fairytale, the father betrays his daughter to save himself, and Rapunzel's suitor is blinded later in the story. Finding a true identity may require heroic stamina.ДЄt an advance screening, I asked why they dropped certain original details. Leaving home is a giant event in every life. Timeless fairytales survive precisely because they explore universal issues. Much of the wisdom comes from the source material. The film explores big personal issues, like finding meaning and connection. In Disney's Tangled, we get a variant of the Rapunzel story that reveals our deepest yearnings.
