|
Purpose of Disney and Death Study |
how is Disney influencing the comprehension of death in children do Disney movies portrayals of death influence children’s comprehension of death? |
|
Disney and Death Study Design |
describe and analyze the portrayal of death in animated Disney films They were chosen for the death scenes and for the time period. Those earlier movies portrayed death differently than they do today. |
|
Scene 1: |
shown because of the severity of this death scene, the guilt that samba feels is very serious for a child to comprehend. This could also be difficult because Mufasa and Scar are brothers, a child may have a hard time understanding how one could do this to another. It is clear that Mufasa is dead. Spirit form |
|
Scene 2: |
The intro is words explaining what the dwarves did for snow white and how she ended up in the glass coffin. Death isn’t perceived as it is now because the prince is able to kiss and wake her. If she were truly dead this of course would not be possible. Reversible, come back in same form. |
|
Scene 3: |
Gaston shoots the beast and inevitably due to this Gaston falls off the roof. This one was because it is just implied that Gaston is dead. |
|
Variables in death and disney |
Character Status: Protagonist – good guy, antagonist – bad guy Depiction of death: explicit death – see it, implicit death – assume dead don’t come back, sleep death, prolonged sleep due to spell, not really dead Death Status: Permanent/final, reversible (reversible – same form you come back from dead) or (reversible- altered you come back as a spirit) Emotional Reaction Causality: |
|
Conclusions of Death in Disney |
Character status: protagonist and antagonist about equal = good and bad guys can die Depiction of death: saw that more good guys died on screen, bad guys off screen, death of bad guys doesn’t matter Death status: majority were permanent; only the good guys had a second chance at life in altered forms Emotional Reactions: neg. most common for good guys; pos. emotion solely bad guys; bad guys get what they deserve |
