Christina Ricci – Little Red Riding Hood (1997) [B&W]

I call this early portion of the class “Fairytales, fables, and mother goose: their origins, the cultural imperatives from which they descend, and how they continue to shape modern thought.”

Hmmm. What does that mean and what can we learn from it?

Well, it’s a section that serves to allow us into a culture that (while long ago and diverse) is a lot like ours. In fact, it still exists all around us in many ways you may not have noticed. Modern writers and filmmakers certainly do.
