The forest of the fairy tale has always been particularly fertile ground for Hollywood. In the way that fairy tales rely on particular plots and characters, films have their own library of tropes, plots and repeat motifs, many of them borrowing from these earlier forms. Take the makeover montage scene. From Miss Congeniality (2000) to The Devil Wears Prada (2006), these sequences are the equivalent of cinematic comfort food: the idea that all a (very conventionally attractive) woman needs is the right haircut, make-up and wardrobe to transform from ugly duckling into swan.
