inspiration for the modern hobo

i watched the first disney movie in a long time tonight that i actually liked

the journey of natty gann

it's about a little lady during the depression hopping trains and eating out of garbage cans and generally escaping THE MAN's clutches on the way to reunite with her dad in washington after he had to leave her behind looking for work

so it's obviously like a disney movie family values kid with animal feel-good times etc and so on
but one thing i liked about it besides the occasional swear and a little bit of smoking and violence and general riffraffery is a young strong female protagonist

kind of reminds me of katniss of the hunger games fame
so i guess i would be wrong to say they wouldn't make a movie like the journey of natty gann today because they sort of have even though the hunger games is a dystopia and natty gann takes place in the real world arguably also dysoptian but i digress

this scene towards the beginning of the buxom middle-aged hotel owner powdering her face and bullying scrappy natty around in her fathers absence reminds me of the makeup debates going on in the feminist blogging circles

im inclined to be like yeah
sgood to feel empowered when everything tries to take your agency away
just as important to realize that what you do with your agency is important too - you know jumping trains organizing shit workplaces and fighting oppression blah blah blah

disney movie for cryin out loud! i haven't seen this much capital-r RRResistance in a disney movie in anything before or after 1985
