Although we don’t do proper themes at Les Bonnes Fees, sometimes we get a lot of submissions pertaining to a specific story. This first issue is loosely tied into Rapunzel, and that got us thinking–isn’t there a Rapunzel movie coming out?
The answer, it seems, is yes–Disney has recently released some stills from the 2010 movie, Rapunzel Unbraided. The film appears to be a CGI (cheaper?) return to the animated style that made Disney films so popular in the 80s and 90s, though the company is quick to point out a twist–the artwork is inspired by The Swing, a painting by the French Rococo artist Jean-Honore Fragonard.
