Worth it for the 'Happy Working Song' [video.disney.com]
Watch Enchanted's Giselle sing The Happy Working Song surrounded by a menagerie of cleaning rats, roaches, and pigeons. (Takes place in NYC)


Enchanted
11/17, 8:00 PM
2007, Fantasy, Comedy,
A fairy-tale princess engaged to a handsome prince is banished from her home in a magical land and transported to present-day New York, where she finds herself falling for a helpful divorce lawyer who serves as her guide to the city.

This 2007 Disney film is the Disney spoof to end all Disney spoofs. Wait, what? That’s right: in this tale of Princess Giselle (Amy Adams), transported from her effortless animated life to the hustle and bustle of modern-day New York City by an evil witch (Susan Sarandon), Disney skewers its own take on the possibilities of true love in the real world. How brilliant to have the man Giselle winds up staying with, Robert (Patrick Dempsey), be a divorce lawyer who reminds her over and over that her supposed “one true love,” Prince Edward (James Marsden), will likely never show up! Likewise, Edward and Giselle’s flustered confusion in the face of a city whose cinematic history isn’t exactly Disney pure in nature.

Even better, the film’s several musical numbers highlight the absurdity and adventure possible in animation by directly referencing other Disney songs in both content and visual form. “That’s How You Know” resembles both “Kiss the Girl” and “Under the Sea” from The Little Mermaid, as Giselle assembles a larger-and-larger mass of kooky and colorful Central Park-goers to illustrate how true love works. And in “Happy Working Song,” the wide-eyed, Snow White-esque princess calls to her animal friends for help in cleaning up Robert’s messy apartment, only to be shocked when sewer rats, pigeons, and cockroaches respond.

Looks intriguing. Thanks.
At first I thought it might contain my favorite “Happy Worker” song from the movie Toys.

This is the best Disney show since Frankenweenie.
