THE MEMORY OF MOTHER IN DISNEY’S FAIRY TALE MOVIES

---

This study discusses the memory of mothers in Disney’s fairy tale movies. This
study aims to analyze the princesses’ remembrances of their mothers and the
effects of those remembrances by using the nostalgia theory by Linda Hutcheon.
Three Disney movies, Cinderella, Beauty and The Beast, and Frozen II were
studied using descriptive qualitative methods. The results of this study show the
princesses remember their mothers due to adversities faced in their lives, and this
memory is accessed through several media such as mother’s words, the mother’s
old dress, the Lullaby, and places. It is also found that those remembrances
empower the princesses and have many positive and significant effects on the
princesses’ life, such as drawing strength and motivation, knowing the truth,
reconstructing their identity, and maintaining self-identity. This positive effect
occurs when the princesses have positive perspectives on the memory of past
events. It means that it may have a negative effect if the past was taken as trauma
or negative events. Furthermore, even though the late mothers can no longer have
an influence on their children, their influence remains in the memory of the
princesses.
