Why 'Brave' Was a Lot Better Than You Think | The New Inquiry »

Though the movie came out weeks ago, this very long essay says everything I wish I could have in my review, in a much more eloquent way. The TL;DR of it all is basically that the presence of the mother and the central mother-daughter conflict have never been done before in this genre and it deserves much more recognition than it was given.

Note: Lili Loofbourow, the post’s writer, gave her essay the headline “Just Another Princess Movie.” I created the headline above.
