Enchanted Song

this is a link to a clip from a recent Disney Movie "Enchanted." I haven't actually seen the movie but I found this cip while surfing through youtube. Apparently in the story a princess from a 'fairy tale' world appears in modern day New York, and must deal with being a fish out of water.

This clip is interesting because deals with a bunch of Disney stereotypes and parodies them. It goes to show that the Disney company knows what they have done to the fairy tale and are able to make fun of themselves for doing it. This is seen in the beginning when she calls the animals to help her clean the apartment. This is playing off the Cinderella movie, especially in the fact that in this clip she calls in real mice, where in the Cinderella movie she uses cute mice.

I don't know if the song was meant to be true or another parody. The song is a working song, and I don't know if they are still following in the theme they've set up. There is one scene that references Cinderella again, and this was while she was cleaning the floor. One sees her reflections in the bubbles as she sings, and this is similar to the same type of scene in Cinderella. I want to say that the song is a parody, but I don't know for sure.

This clip makes me want to see the rest of the movie, just to see how it deals with the image it has created.
