Shrek is a series of animated films. Shrek is a giant green ogre, lured out of his comfortable smelly swamp on adventures with friends Donkey and Puss, to rescue then marry the beautiful Princess Fiona. In a twist on usual Happy Ever After endings, true love's kiss permanently sets Fiona in the form of an ogre too, whereas the lovely Fairy Godmother and her son Prince Charming are villains. Beauty on the inside can be seen on the outside. Directors intended morals from beginning following Shrek's journey of growth - be true to yourself (Shrek #1), be part of a family #2, accept responsibility #3 - uplifting positive family values.
Famous quotes containing the words list of, list and/or characters:
“Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“The advice of their elders to young men is very apt to be as unreal as a list of the hundred best books.”
—Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (1841–1935)
“When the characters are really alive before their author, the latter does nothing but follow them in their action, in their words, in the situations which they suggest to him.”
—Luigi Pirandello (1867–1936)
