Sometimes as writers we need to improvise. We are forced to be resourceful as our normal tool belt just won't do.
My kids love the movie Enchanted watch it often. There is a scene where the Princess has to clean, but she does not have the normal Disney resources that other princesses like Snow White had access to.
So she had to improvise. Enjoy:
I remember the cockroaches. Disgusting!
ReplyDeleteHi Steve .. I don't think I've ever seen this .. revolting, but fun at the same time ... I could do with friends like that!! Cheers and have a happy weekend .. Hilary
ReplyDeleteI have never seen this, not very nice but fun.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week-end.
Yvonne.
I love enchanted.
ReplyDeleteI used to work at a floral shop as a floral designer. My boss used to say anyone can make a nice arrangement out of nice flowers. It takes a real artist to make a nice arrangement out of nothing. Not that we sent out bad flowers but some days if it got busy we got very low on flowers, and we still made it work.
Improvisation is so important. Otherwise life is going to be one big disappointment.
I used to have pet rats. I wish they'd cleaned for me.
ReplyDeleteThis scene makes me laugh every time I watch the movie-- actually there are a few funny scenes, little twists on the Disney cartoons. Great analogy.
ReplyDeleteI love Enchanted!! And this scene is just beyond parody! LOL! Brilliant!! Take care

I hate the cockroaches. The scene made me chuckle but also shiver. I get your point, though. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part was the cockroaches!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this one, but it looks like a fun movie. Hey, if the guy's apartment was that filthy, he'll never notice it was cleaned by dirty rats and roaches, lol :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure why I haven't seen this movie, but I'm going to.
ReplyDeleteIs it wrong to want to wear that dress?
I have always hated cockroaches, actually these were Palmetto bugs because they flew, but I enjoyed them in this scene. Never seen Enchanted, guess I must ensure that I do. Wish I could get some critters to do my cleaning too.
ReplyDeleteThat was a pretty decent movie. :) Is there a normal tool belt for writing? I haven't found where to pick mines up at... Writer’s Mark
ReplyDeleteNot really a fan of that movie, but the idea behind it was good.
ReplyDeleteVery cute movie! I guess everything is possible if you have the right attitude and friends to help. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm terrified of cockroaches. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI'm calling her to get her magic trick. I can do without the cockroaches, but anything can be tolerated when there's a dirty house crisis.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this movie. Very cute clip!
ReplyDeleteI've seen the movie so I was prepared for the cockroaches. Not sure I could handle that trade off, even though I'm not big on cleaning.
ReplyDeleteI love that movie, and I especially loved that song. Now I have a craving to watch the movie again. :D
ReplyDeleteIt somehow loses something from the original cartoon version when the vermin aren't animated, LOL!
ReplyDeleteHilarious parody of Disney wrapped in a clever, cockroach ridden composition!
