DISNEY PICTURE
But animated movies - everything from feature length films, Saturday morning cartoons that quirkier short, the National Film Board documents filled ideology like any other form of art, and especially with the commercial product they are powerful vehicles for some ideas of our culture.
What messages are hugely popular Disney animation back on women, for example? It depends on the movie to a certain extent, but there are a number of stock female characters that appear in most commercial, American-produced animated features: the (increasing) convex, a little whiny, but vital innocent heroine (Little Mermaid, Pocahontas ), the adorably strong modern heroine, determined to make his own destiny to fulfill, without hair to ruin (Belle in Beauty and the Beast) and larger-than-life matron who was either threatening (Cruella the VII in 101 Dalmatians) or comic (Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland) or both (the ugly stepsisters in Cinderella). Disney's Tinkerbell, Peter Pan's peevish, jealous and petty little friend is a particularly vicious display of a woman scorned. But we've heard before that and then finally in Los Angeles, with the result that recent Disney films have reduced some of sexism (but still insulting stereotypes unpopular minorities exhibit by Arabs and homosexuals).
Even the violent, is a noisy Saturday morning cartoons now equipped warriors with women about their breasts formidable formidable breasts and more attitude than a taxi driver in New York City.
But this progress does not like the look at me, just an update of the kernel to reduce stereotypes. In most animated films today, the women characters are either old or attractive, but never both.
There are not many heroines who are successful and unattractive, either, in animation or live action movies. The modern comic book heroine can pursue a career, but if they do not snag a handsome prince, she also has not really succeeded.
There are exceptions to the ditzy ladies, bodacious babes and warty-nose witches that populate the country show. The indomitable Lucy in the animated versions of Charlie Brown is not Minnie Mouse. And The Simpsons, subversive creation of Matt Groening, features female characters more nuanced and complicated than Wilma and Betty from the Flintstones. But they remain exceptions.
According to Maureen Furnished, editor and founder editor of Animation Journal and director of film studies at Chapman University in Orange, California, the animation industry is still looking for physical comedy and animators have trouble making the kind of comedy with women. "
As for Disney - Furnished in the city of Ottawa International Animation Festival, which ended Sunday - said: "There are people who care", and there have been recent encouraging changes in the management of the company. But as a whole, "much of it (Disney) produces is immune, not only for women and minorities, but for the world." Some animators are trying to solve these problems by creating animal characters of ambiguous gender, or by painting their characters blue or green rather than black, brown or white to circumvent. But, says furnished, "or the practice where animals or colors that a principle means of transcending stereotypes. They are avoiding techniques."
Fortunately there are alternatives to Disney's vision and some were on display Sunday at the National Arts Centre in a series entitled Women in Animation, organized by Furnished and her pupils, Lyne Herbots.
Furnished not include a feminist alternative to the Little Mermaid, but to show how many different ways that women without limitations of a multi-million dollar industry is represented.
The show included work with two bold, wickedly witty and formed the British animators, Candy Guard and Joanna Quinn. Guard short piece is equipped with two girlfriends at a party, worry about what to wear is too early to be ignored, and eating too much junk. It is a closely observed, and a feeling of inferiority happy look on our insecurity as women, hardly a feminist manifesto, but revolutionary, because it is so true.
Maps Quinn tells the story of Beryl, a Welsh factory worker stabbed by her colleague Vince, a pawn in his own mind about her weight. As revenge takes Beryl and Vince bodybuilding victory on his record, turning the tables on him and on conventional imaging cartoons of fat women.
More familiar, though less realistic, it is a 1950 Hollywood classic "Little Red Hot Riding Hood, with a testosterone laden Wolf, Little Red Riding Hood, a comprehensive review torchy lounge singer and her grandmother as a sex-crazed diva. It is dated in a dumb mindless way, and sometimes funny.

Whether in his animations, or amusement parks, Disney has built his career on creating unique and innovative experiences. Because he was constantly into unknown territory, not necessarily have to take risks. Not all risks borne fruit.
