Date: 2013-07-30 05:28 am (UTC)I'm often amazed at which stories from among the 210 that Jacob and Wilhelm collected became famous, and which get forgotten (at least among the anglophones).
I mean, Rapunzel is considered by many to be a "standard," because the romantic leads are both pretty. But The Singing, Springing Lark (another blockbuster movie-to-be-made if ever there was one) is barely known at all... Went looking for it on YouTube, the other night, to see if anyone had put up an illustrated video of a reading. ...And the only videos I found were in German (and the visuals were all still images... so I couldn't even follow along).
