Moana

How does it feel to think about DISNEY in through the critical lenses posed by Christensen and my slides? How did these frameworks help you think about Moana?


Rewatching Moana through a different lense was interesting. I watched it with my husband who has never seen the movie before. So, as I was taking notes and thinking about things critically I would ask him his opinion on the movie. The Princess Conventions chart was very helpful as it brought to light some of those critical thinking questions. A few parts that caught my eye was about the use of Moanas hair. When she first sets out on her journey she ties up her beautiful flowy hair almost in a "getting to work" way. Male Roles: The role of Moana's father; he knows she will be a great leader, as long as she doesn't push the boundaries and stays in the comfort zone (on the island). Maui first sees moana as a "princess" She can't do much. As they journey together he learns more about the strength and power moana holds within her.
