Who is/would be Parsifal’s wife? As you said his children found a line that goes into other later Disney royals.

You know I think I'd have her be the princess from Donkeyskin/Alleleiruh. I've always liked that story and been wanting to bring it in at some point. Definitely think Disney would change the whole incest bit though, maybe change the mad king to a wicked step-father? Still icky but not as out right disturbing.

Anyway Parsifal would be the young king who's kingdom she eacapes to and works in the kitchens of until she can be revealed as a princess and they're married.

I think I'd name her Carine, after Catherine Denevue who played the titlur princess in the 1970 French film Donkeyskin

A fairy tale is a great vehicle for Jacques Demy’s colorful excesses, perfect, no notes--

[Image description: a princess with long blonde hair curtsies to the king.  The princess is wearing a light blue dress with ridiculously huge puffed sleeves and a similarly huge skirt.  The king is wearing a plum velvet cape, purple shirt, and silver boots and leggings.  The king is sitting on a throne(?) that looks like a medieval illustration of a cat that has been brought to life and taxidermied poorly.]

But the part that really got me was when the fairy rolled up at the end of the movie in a helicopter (not the non-sequitur you might expect, she’d made references to being familiar with future technology), with the princess’s crusty father(!!), then went up to the princess and said to her “I’m marrying your father, try to look pleased.”

[Image description: A woman wearing a white diaphanous sleeveless gown is handed out of a helicopter by the pilot, who is also dressed all in white.  Behind her the king, also wearing white, leans forward in preparation for getting out of the helicopter.  The back of the helicopter is painted with a coat of arms that consists of a sitting white cat with a tree behind it.]
