364. Dream Analysis, AI & Fairy Tales | Jonathan Pageau
The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast
Pageau writing and Staying True to Fairy Tale Stories
The creation of a fairy tale screenplay, particularly the adaptation of the Grimm's 'Water of Life,' emphasizes the importance of maintaining the integrity of classic stories. While modern interpretations and twists on fairy tales, as seen in works like 'Shrek,' provide entertaining commentary, there is a growing need to return to the original narratives to preserve their powerful messages and cultural significance. These timeless stories serve as foundational elements of Western civilization, acting as 'tuning forks' that reflect core values and truths. The process of storytelling involves both emergence and selection, where various versions arise but only the most impactful ones endure through time, getting refined much like precious metals. Staying true to these fairy tales allows audiences to reconnect with the reasons these narratives resonate and endure, reinforcing their vital role in cultural memory and identity.
