Had this modern interpretation concept of Snow White in my mind since I heard the new plot line for the upcoming Snow White movie. I don't want anymore diversity checklist-esque "empowered" women. I want a broken hero that's escaping a narcissist mother, which was what the fairytale was about in my opinion. One who finds a loving community and it feels too good to be true. One who doesn't wake up to true love's kiss. The love that wakes Snow White is the promise that one can overcome even the darkest of influences with the power of self-love and support from those who truly care.
