The author, Hans Christian Andersen, wrote it in 1837 when he heard that his friend Edvard Collin was engaged. He had long loved Edvard, but Edvard was not feeling it. Hans used the metaphor of the mermaid to symbolize a love that was doomed to failure. For just as a mermaid could not love a human, he could not find love with another man.

I especially have to commend the child actors on their performances. The ending did a great job tying up loose ends and bringing a closure to the story. All in all, a great film.

However, I would argue that of all the women portrayed by Disney, Meg is actually one of the closest to this stereotype.<br /><br />The five princesses of the 90s are all deeply contemplative about their identities and futures, whereas we know nothing about Meg as an individual beyond crucial plot elements, and far from exploring and searching for depth of identity, she discourages Hades from reminding her of her past and her desires. The princesses all fight against personal grievance and wider social injustice, whereas Meg, in order to save the life of a man who quickly betrays her, sells her soul to another man, whose complete dominance over her she docilely accepts until it's too late for rebellion to be of any use to anyone, herself included, and this she only does to protect yet another man. The princesses all attract their love interests by more admirable virtues than beauty or charm, whereas Meg seems to be a pretty ugly individual on the inside, having had no qualms about bringing about Hercules' death until she has a personal interest in him. The princesses are all discerning and dignified in their relationships, and are not falling over themselves to marry anyone, even if he is a prince, whereas, in Meg's case, the fact that she dismisses his help and attempts to resist him doesn't prevent her from having her life saved by him and falling in love with him anyway. None of the princesses lose sight of their worth as an individual by seeing the love interest as the most important element of a happy ending, whereas Meg, having no desires or personal goals of her own to speak of, is the only heroin in Disney history to actually die for her love interest.<br /><br />I think people think of her as “spunky” just because she's a wise cracking, deep voiced brunette, but, to my mind, she's all talk and no substance.
