my mom, a colorist woman!! was adamant about not watching because 'her ariel' was white. on the day i was gonna see the movie, she was watching the trailer and i guess she finally decided to go. she left the cinema googling halle and listening to her music on the way home π
Thank you to Disney fans in the Philippines for making this happen! π§β
Disney's The Little Mermaid is the Biggest Movie of 2023 in the Philippines, making waves as the film with the biggest opening week and opening weekend this year!

I'm still in the process of convincing my mom to watch it with us. She actually doesn't realise that she's being racist with some of the stuff that she says....
