Check out all three of the Cinderella case studies (Disney animated, Disney live action, and Anne Sexton’s poem). Watch/read each.
Choose one of the three versions. Write me a 1-page response as to how and why and that version is literary:
Overall, what makes it literary? (Think about the big definitions of what literature is and choose one for that version.)
How can you prove that literary value? (Find where literary elements might be present in that version. How do they serve its overall lit value?)
Include critique of the other two versions: why don’t those have as much literary value?
