Truly "Enchanted"

I took advantage of having the day off and the back-up nanny and slipped off to an afternoon matinee of "Enchanted" with Zeke. Two thumbs up from me and the boy. What a delightful Disney confection! It gently pokes fun at all the happily-ever-after stereotypes, while still relying upon them. Susan Sarandon is perfectly cast as the evil step-mother [channeling Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty, right down to the dragon], and Giselle, the princess-wannabee is delightful. This is the typical Disney musical, and it features some very clever songs from the genius Alan Menken. I completely missed Dame Julie Andrews in the role of narrator [gotta love imdb.com!] and a couple other sneaky little jabs. I'll probably put this into the DVD collection when it's available. Fun and family-friendly.
