Movie talk: Aladdin, 2020

USING MOVIES TO TALK TO YOUR KIDS

Admin, 04.22.21 / Education, Movie Talks PG

Maturity Rating: PG

Synopsis:

Aladdin, a poor street thief, lives in the city of Agrabah. Aladdin must steal from the marketplace in order to survive. One day in the market he befriends Princess Jasmine, the daughter of the Sultan. Second in command is Jafar, who hatches a plan to take over the kingdom. Aladdin soon meets Genie who lives inside a magic lamp and offers him three wishes. Aladdin uses his wishes to follow his dreams and save the kingdom from Jafar.

Questions:

1. Aladdin steals to eat and helps the poor by doing so, is it okay to steal when you know someone is starving? Stealing isn’t legal, but should we allow it in order to help someone else? What do you think?

2. Not everyone has a Genie who can grant them three wishes, though it would be nice! If you could have a genie grant you three wishes, any three wishes, what would they be and why?

3. When Aladdin and Jasmine meet, there is an instant spark, almost like love at first sight. Do you believe you could fall in love with someone at first sight? Why or why not? Have you met someone, maybe a new friend, and known immediately you were meant to be friends? Who was it?
