Fairy Movies

Fairy movies are a magical way to take kids to a new world where they can dream, play and learn. The best fairy films will not only entertain and delight, but also teach children a little bit about our own world. They will help them develop a deeper understanding of themselves, and how their actions affect those around them.

Many of us can remember our first fairy tales. Some of us read the Brothers Grimm versions, while others turned to fairy tales for a more animated take on life from Disney and Pixar. While these movies are great for kids, they often lack some of the darker and more realistic aspects of the fairy tales. This is because fairy tales are designed psychologically to assist in the social and emotional development of young children.

There are some wonderful movies out there that offer a more authentic and twisted view of the fairy world. These include films that incorporate fairy folk and legend, and those that use the genre as a means of exploring contemporary issues such as sexuality, mental illness, social injustice and even religious beliefs. These films are sometimes referred to as fairy tale dramas or cinematic folklore.

Some of the more edgy fairy movies focus on the resurgence of darker elements in fairy tales that were originally discarded or censored by traditional oral telling. They include the resurgence of the erotic, violent and supernatural elements of folklore that were once used to assist in the survival of humans and animals during times of hardship. Examples of this are seen in films such as Pan’s Labyrinth and Mirrors.

Other movies focus on examining the role of fairy tales in our modern lives, and how they can be used as tools to aid in self-regulation and self-growth. The works of authors such as Litania Graaf and Marilyn Fleer have shown how fairy tales can be used in psychotherapy to help people work through their issues using escapism.

Lastly, there are some wonderful fantasy movies that use fairy themes to explore the power of friendship and the importance of putting others before oneself. These films have been praised for the way they show that we can make anything happen if we believe in ourselves. The works of filmmakers such as Tim Burton and Guillermo del Toro, have shown how fairy themes can be applied to a wide variety of movie genres from romantic comedy to erotic thriller and science fiction.
