The co-hosts revisit their favorite topics of gender roles and colonization, while also debating what, exactly, dreams are made of for the second Disney princess. Episode BibliographyBeauchamp, F.

They discuss the historical context of WWII in which the film was released and consider how this relates to the film’s themes about morality and family relationships. by Deconstructing Disney
