Everyone has a favorite fairy tale that they think about and just LA-OVE that storyline. 💖
For me, hands down, it’s The 10th Kingdom, which you can see on Amazon Prime here.
You most likely have never seen it and it’s definitely not for smaller children (think: teens, older kids, adults), but it’s the greatest fairy tale story of all time.
There’s an EPIC storyline (think: Lord of the Rings type of movie) and it’s just great. I love so many parts about it and the whole thing, scene by scene, really makes you think about things.
I think that truthfully, I connect to it so much because of the mom. The mom did something bad (I won’t say what and spoil it), but I’ve went through something very similar and no one really talks about that kind of pain.
What if…the person who SHOULD love you, never did, and you go through life, never knowing what love is, because you were never shown it by those who should have been the ones to show you? It’s really deep and if you have a mom who loves you, you’re really blessed to not have to deal with that kind of trauma.
Aside from all of that, there are so many other stories interwoven in it, a lot of Snow White and other types of characters, too. It’s just a fantastic, edge-of-your-seat the whole time, type of movie series.
If you haven’t seen it, you definitely should. 😊
