In all of its fairy tales of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the Walt Disney studios works to sell its audiences the national myth of the United States at any one historical moment. With analyses of films and television programmes such as \u003ci\u003eThe Little Mermaid \u003c\/i\u003e(1989), \u003ci\u003eFrozen \u003c\/i\u003e(2013), \u003ci\u003eBeauty and the Beast \u003c\/i\u003e(2017) and \u003ci\u003eOnce Upon a Time \u003c\/i\u003e(2011-2018), Mollet argues that by giving its fairy tale protagonists\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003echaracteristics associated with 'good' Americans, and even by situating their fairy tales within America itself, Disney constructs a vision of America as a utopian space.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tracey L.
