Most tv shows these days can't hold my interest, but I am loving Once Upon A Time, and I'm excited about all the new fairy-tale-based movies coming out.<br /><br />And Hilary--I agree, Gregory Maguire's retellings are fabulous! My favorite is Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister, although Wicked did inspire one of my favorite musicals, which I'm getting ready to go see for the second time this spring.

And I have to admit, the Snow White movie with Julia Roberts looks wonderful. Maybe I need to give more of these type of books a try.

I would like to think Gregory Maguire started the craze with WICKED, one of my favorite re-tellings, but unsure! <br /><br />I know that Ivy is one of my favorites for sure! :)Hilary Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18199287020561210673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-71101664576885460602011-12-07T09:02:52.444-06:002011-12-07T09:02:52.444-06:00We watch Once Upon a Time together as a family eac...We watch Once Upon a Time together as a family each week, and everyone LOVES it!

I generally love it when Hollywood, or even publishing, retells these classic tales, but they can be done poorly, too. Look at the movie, Brothers Grimm.<br /><br />Actually, don't look at it, it's horribly disturbing.Matthew MacNishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03264738483763244969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-63803143886809859132011-12-07T06:09:06.685-06:002011-12-07T06:09:06.685-06:00I love all the new retellings of fairy tales too. ...I love all the new retellings of fairy tales too.
