SomeBODY once told me that Shrek changed the face of animated movies in 2001. They were right! Join us as we discuss the movie that went from outcast to superstar, borne from Jeffrey Katzenberg's well-earned anger at Michael Eisner.
So. Much. Drama.
Fiona is a princess unlike any we've seen -- she showed us that Happily Ever After can look different from the usual, and that being yourself is the most beautiful thing to be. Learn about the different forms of stigma, and how this movie actually is used to TEACH the concept to psychology majors in universities. Then see if you can name all the references in this movie-- there are a whole lot.
Be an All-Star, and join us in honoring Fiona!
