Reply to comment by cybercat5555 in TIL the original 1881 "Pinocchio" was a dark story that included the puppet's execution by hanging for his bad behavior (which included murdering Jiminy Cricket) by foodtower

Sounds awesome. That version needs to be a film.

Oof. Today's environment could not handle it. It'd be canceled from the jump. Unless it was presented in a girlpower/all-men-are-bad theme. Maybe change the ending to have her actually be the "wolf" that lured the wolf. Having her die, in bed, to the wolf, in such a way, would make it a social target. It would feature "Trigger warnings."
