The Discreet Insensitivity of ‘Slumberland’
The cultural insensitivity of 'Slumberland' is discreet, and can be easily overlooked in CGI extravaganza.
Soldier and Witch
A soldier was walking along the road. Years of service are behind us, and the unknown lies ahead. The soldier met a witch who asked him to get a flintlock for himself from the hollow of an old tree, and for the soldier himself as much money as he could carry. But this is just the beginning of a fascinating story. The soldier will outsmart the witch, manage to get rich, and go broke, and kiss the princess, and get into the dungeon.
Based on the fairy tale "The Flintlock" by Hans Christian Andersen.
