Nobody dies in it: "Little Dog Lost". Made about 1960.<br />Many old fairy tales/childrens stories are disquised stories about tyrant kings, queens and governments. Since merely uttering a complaint about them could get you thrown in prisons. There was no freedom of speech. Sadly today we are heading back to those days where no one dares utter a truth only now we stupidly accept this tyranny which is called Political Correctness. Under this method of thought control we each become tyrants ourselves. Each of us enforces the laws of Political Correctness on the other. We all become one with evil. On 9-11-2001 I was more afraid of Political Correctness than I was of Terrorism because I knew PC would make Terrorists and Islam off limits to critique. Now we have a mosque being built at Ground Zero and anyone who condemns it is branded a racist. The new evil Kings and Queens are the Joy Behars and Whoopi Goldbergs who teach all us peasants to fear speaking the truth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636836467142674388.post-58577596453439459192010-11-27T23:15:35.101-07:002010-11-27T23:15:35.101-07:00Yes...maybe it's our way of showing children t...Yes...maybe it's our way of showing children the reality of life without actually showing them...but often the fantasy is worse than the reality at that age...is there a Disney movie that someone doesn't get killed or hurt? No.<br /><br />Life, in celluloid or paper, or just plain imagination can be so sad...and near the end of our lives, so very real...<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, BFG...smile...MsBurb....B.J.
