Of Slippers and Spindles - Fairy Tale Retellings and Adaptations in Books, Film, and Theatre
Join fairy tale enthusiasts Cassie, Daurie, Laura, and Matt as they discuss the world of film and literary adaptations! Each month (or so) they will choose a specific fairy tale, and each week they will discuss a different book, movie, or musical adaptation of that fairy tale, exploring the way authors and artists retell, change, twist, conserve, and diversify the same stories over and over.
In loving memory, always, of Drew.

Episode 143: Beauty and the Beast wrap up and intro to The Little Mermaid
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Cassie and Matt wrap up their final thoughts on Beauty and the Beast with a discussion about how more modern retellings are changing the focus and the story's definition of Happily Ever After for the better. Then Cassie and Daurie turn their attention to a revisit of Little Mermaid. For a more in depth discussion of this story, go back to episode 25 about halfway through! We're splitting our focus this era between Disney retellings and Andersen retellings!
