Disney's Facination with Red Neck Ties.

This is something that's been on my mind lately. I'm not really sure why. And, I'm so gonna screw up the alignment of this page. So on that note, here we go.

If you watch as many Disney movies as I do, and, lets be honest, who doesn't, you may have noticed that many of the boy characters, especially in the period pieces tend to wear red bandannas/ neck ties/ cravat type things. This is most commonly in the rascally, larikin-y, sometimes trouble making ones. For Exampl-ay:

Everybodies favourite - Jack Kelly/Cowboy from Newsies


Dodger - Oliver and Company


Jesse Tuck - Tuck Everlasting


And, Bert - Mary Poppins


I also wanted to add Woody and Jack Sparrow to the list but left them out on technicalities.

I might add some commentary at a later point but that's all for now. We had waaaay too much food for easter and now I am a little sleepy. I'll leave you with this though, I watched 'Pufnstuf' (well, most of it), the movie, this morning. And can I just say Jack Wild for the win. Because,you know, why would you simply say a line when shouting it is an option. No, really, I do love him. I did google him for my previous list but sadly the artful dodger does not wear red.

Until next time,
Katherine.

Edit: yes, i do think I will edit this eventually. I would also like to add that I have failed miserably in 'don't buy things in April' oh ebay, how you haunt me.
