![]() ![]() Like Rapunzel in Tangled, Moana (Hawaiian newcomer Auli’i Cravalho) is brave and ambitious, but also naïve and sheltered, because she’s been held back by overprotective parents with their own agenda for her life. Once again, there’s a young woman leaving a safe, comfortable home, venturing into a dangerous world, and finding her destiny, all while singing catchy songs about what she wants and how she’ll get it.Īll the narrow parameters are familiar, too, this time from Disney’s Tangled. The studio is still following the broad parameters it started laying down in 1937, with Snow White a nd t he Seven Dwarfs, by reshaping a culturally specific fairy tale to fit a family-friendly, accessible template. Virtually everything about Disney’s latest fairy tale, Moana, is familiar from past Disney films.
