Assignment #4 6 Minute English---What's in a fairy tale?

Recently, Hollywood has produced a number of remake movie which is based on traditional fairy tales for the adult market. In some stories, the version of the original and latest are pretty different. For example, we don't call seven dwarves Sneezy, Dopey or Happy because it's to childish for teens or adults. Furthermore, it's surprising that in "The Frog Prince" the princess doesn't kiss the frog instead of throwing it against the wall! If I know more truths of the fairy tales maybe my childhood will be broken.
