I don't have any new movies to write about, but for some reason I was cogitating about The Princess and the Frog recently, and something stood out to me that hadn't before. I like this movie a lot and think it's generally under-appreciated, though I can see it would be incredibly frustrating for girls with darker skin to finally see a Disney heroine who looks like them - only to have her spend most of the movie as a frog! But, predictably, what I'm going to talk about here is gender roles.
