Rumpelstiltskin paul zelinsky5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() I want to see this get a Disney movie, but Rumpelstiltskin is the hero of the story and he is some sort of do gooder. Paul did say that he used the 2nd edition of the Grimm’s Fairy tales to tell this story. The artwork is like Rapunzel, it’s a Italian Renaissance style like that other book. Rumpelstiltskin is the hero of this messed up story. ![]() He didn’t have to give her 3 nights to guess his name. I think he was saying his name in the woods so the girl wouldn’t have to give up the child. He always shows up just when he’s needed. He seems to know what’s going on around that castle. ![]() I think he wanted her to overhear his name. She didn’t have to offer up her child, but she did. Then, this strange little man does a job for you, you agree on payment and then he ends up the bad guy. You were going to kill me, great, let’s get married, you are husband material. He seems like quite the villain to me, but she ends up marrying him. The thing I have never understood is that the girl is threatened 3 times by this king guy and if she can’t spin straw into gold she will die. I mean Rumpelstiltskin does save this girls life. I still never completely understood it though. ![]()
