DVD Reviews of Faerie Tale Theatre - Rumpelstiltskin
DVD Review: Faerie Tale Theater rocks but I hate this story....
Summary: 2 Stars
I have been a fan of the Faerie Tale Theater series since I was a little kid, and I just recently was given the DVD box set of all the movies for Christmas.
I love these movies! Shelly Duvall is a genious for bringing her magical creations to the screen. They are so fun to watch and bring so many memories from my childhood back to me!
However, this specific story upsets me every time I see it! I have never understood how anyone could actually enjoy this tale. Shelley Duvall plays the millers daughter, who is handed over to the greedy, annoying, money hungry King played by Ned Beatty, after the King is told she can spin straw into gold. Well, Shelley Duvall CAN'T spin straw into gold and she is honest with the king, but he warns her that he will kill her if she doesn't spin it into gold (What a NICE guy, huh??).
Anyways, to make a long story short-she hires a little elvish creature-who she makes a fairly valid deal with-to save her life-and ends up cheating him in the long run. The two things that upset me about this story are the fact that the King is incredibly evil and greedy, yet he gets everything in the end and is made out to be some sort of hero, and also the fact that poor Rumplestiltskin made a deal with a girl who decides to go back on it at the last minute.
It wasn't his fault-he wanted a baby and she promised him one-so, what gives her the right to be some martyr in the end? I hate this story! My favorite Faerie Tale Theater creations are Snow White, The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, The Three Little Pigs, Thumbelina and Pinnochio.
RUMPIE WAS ROBBED!!!!!
