 Jack and the Beanstalk (1974)
comment
A Japanese animated film from The '70s directed by Gisaburo Sugii who was an animation director for Belladonna of Sadness and later directed Night on the Galactic Railroad, the 1984 Glass Mask TV series, and Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie. It is, of course, a re-imagining/expansion of the fairy-tale "Jack and the Beanstalk". The film starts out familiarly enough... Jack is tricked into trading his cow for magic beans, the beans grow a beanstalk over night...and then it gets interesting. Jack's dog, Crosby, saves a mouse wearing a pink princess dress from a bird, and she leads Jack and Crosby to the top of the beanstalk, to a magical cloud kingdom. There, Jack meets Princess Margaret, who seems oddly calm about marrying an ugly, dumb giant and having a Wicked Witch for a mother-in-law. Of course, it's revealed that the witch wants to be queen of the cloud kingdom and has turned the rest of the royal family and servants into mice, who beg Jack to save their princess.Released in Japan in 1974 as the debut production for Group TAC, it received an English-language dub and distribution through Columbia Pictures in 1976 with Billie Lou Watt of Astro Boy fame as the voice of Jack, and aired occasionally on U.S. cable television (particularly HBO) during the 1980s.

Heel–Face Door-Slam: Tulip by the end seems to, if not quite turn good, at least not be interested in hurting anybody anymore, simply sitting down by himself and not making any attempt to harm any of the others even when they're standing right in front of him. The others either don't notice this or don't buy it, and decide to get rid of him anyway.

True Love's Kiss: Averted. It is a kiss that will break the spell on Margaret, but it doesn't have to be her One True Love...the only requirement is that the kisser is brave. Jack briefly says he isn't brave enough to even try... Nevertheless, Margaret tells him afterward it was the sweetest kiss she's ever had.

Talking in Your Sleep
 Jack and the Beanstalk (1974) / int_2d6c0bce
comment
Talking in Your Sleep: Margaret apparently does this, only able to express how terrified she is in her sleep. This is because the mind-control spell that Hecuba has cast over the princess wears off at night and must be cast anew each day. Jack overhears her while on his way back home with some of the stolen treasure and is momentarily given pause, but is not persuaded to go back and fight until Crosby shames him into it afterward.

However, Jack is forced to cut down the beanstalk, the only thing connecting their worlds, to kill the giant. The last scene implies that Jack will eventually forget Margaret.

Likes Older Women: A little bit of both vibes are present when Madame Hecuba first sees Jack. She wants to get him away from Margaret—so she can feed him potion-laced soup that'll knock him out til her giant-son eats him. But during that, she acted like a weird mix of motherly and seductive, and wondered aloud if she should use her "good looks" to lure Jack away. Then there's Margaret telling Jack she has feelings for him and moving in to kiss him near the end. Jack seems to be about twelve, Margaret appears to be eighteen.

Foreshadowing: In the treasure vault, Tulip is seen with a tiny robotic doll of his mother, who sings a "The Reason You Suck" Speech. Tulip watches/listens patiently for a few minutes before suddenly smashing it to pieces. Guess how Madame Hecuba dies.

comment
Mood Whiplash: The tone is all over the place. The wedding is an acid trip, Madame Hecuba's scenes are creepy, and the climax in which Tulip chases Jack is practically a Looney Tunes short with classic Looney Tunes gags. All capped off by the ending, in which Tulip falls to his death while a reprise of "No One is Happier than I" plays in the background, albiet with lyrics stating that evening has come and the story is coming to a close.

comment
Imagine Spot: Hecuba, Tulip, and Margaret all have them during the wedding sequence. Tulip imagines himself and Margaret on a belle, happily married, Margaret imagines Tulip is a handsome prince (heavily suggested to be a result of Hecuba's magic), and Madame Hecuba imagines what she'll do to the other two after the wedding. Her plan is to turn them into a mouse and rat after they're married, to take the throne herself.

Too Dumb to Live: Suuuuure, Madame Hecuba. Insulting and yelling at your son, who is several stories bigger than you and a lot heavier, when he's pissed off enough already is a great idea.

Forced Transformation: Everybody who originally lived in the castle except for Margaret get turned into mice by the witch's magic. And that appears to be the intended fate for Margaret and Tulip once Madame Hecuba gets what she wanted.

Princess Classic: Margret is one, particularly when not under mind control. Also, one of the humans-turned-mice dresses like a stereotypical princess, though she's never explicitly stated to be one, or mentioned to be Margret's sister or anything like that, so she may just be an unusually regally-dressed servant or a lesser noblewoman.

Road Runner vs. Coyote: During the climax, Jack and Crosby goads Tulip into chasing them, devolving into something of a Road Runner cartoon, with slapstick, Tulip's head getting smashed in at one point, train tracks and a painted tunnel (during this scene, Tulip's head takes on the shape of a train smokestack and his feet turn into wheels), the works.

Never Say "Die": In the English dub, Jack's father is "gone"; Margaret's parents were "done away with" by Hecuba; Hecuba commands Tulip to "destroy" Jack and Margaret after her spell is broken; and so on.
