Positive Retaliation
Producer of
Shrek is Jeffrey Katzenberg who once employed by Disney and Disney’s
chairman—Michael Eisner. Then he devoted himself to Disney and he made a great
contribution to raise the attraction of their commercial business. But they
have some disputes about why Eisner promoted his friend rather than him. Katzenberg
set up DreamWorks, which causes some major tension in film industry.
Katzenberg
created a character Lord Farquaad who is at a height of three feet.
Katzenberg's height once caused a comment made by Eisner, “I hate that little
midget” He used a form of parody to show that success id not related to height.
I love his thoughts that whoever you are, you can find your happiness and love.
I think it is true charm of DreamWorks. The kind of stories is fairy
tales rather than tales for children. The subject of fairy tales is love and
hope. We can state his ideals run through his whole works. Whether you're a princess, a
donkey or even a big, green, stinky ogre, you can find love.
Maybe it is a
kind of widely publicity,
which result in more people seeing the movie. It shows a
positive attitude to believe in love. When he heard about “ I hate that little
midget.” He is not self-contemptuous for his height and he tell us we need to love
ourselves whatever we are. His positive spirit inspires
us and his entertaining gives us happiness. Even if it is retaliation, it is a
positive retaliation.
