About the Little Red Riding Hood	comment	About the Little Red Riding Hood, or, to use its full title, About the Little Red Riding Hood: Continuation of the Old Fairytale (Russian: ÐŸÑ€Ð¾ ÐšÑ€Ð°Ñ�Ð½ÑƒÑŽ Ð¨Ð°Ð¿Ð¾Ñ‡ÐºÑƒ. ÐŸÑ€Ð¾Ð´Ð¾Ð»Ð¶ÐµÐ½Ð¸Ðµ Ñ�Ñ‚Ð°Ñ€Ð¾Ð¹ Ñ�ÐºÐ°Ð·ÐºÐ¸) is a 1977 Soviet childrenâ€™s musical film directed by Leonid Nechayev.It is, as the title implies, a Continuation Fic of "Little Red Riding Hood". A year has passed since the events of the fairytale, and the killed wolfâ€™s mother the She-Wolf is nursing her increased hatred of humans. She asks (read: hires) the familyâ€™s friend the Thin Wolf to bring Little Red Riding Hood to her so that she could have her revenge. In addition, she wants him to take her remaining son, the Fat Wolf, along and train him, since the latter sympathises with humans way too much for her liking and has too much influence over his nephew the Wolf-Cub.The Thin Wolf lures Red Riding Hood into the forest by sending her a message that her grandmother is sick again. The two wolvesâ€™ plan is simple: disguise themselves as humans and kidnap the girl by putting her into a sack, but said plan keeps going awry for all sorts of reasons â€“ and in no small part because Red Riding Hoodâ€™s friendliness and kindness towards them in each of their disguises makes them less and less willing to hurt her.

In the soundtrack release, the first song was given to the much more unambiguously villainous She-Wolf.

The one time the Fat Wolf does show some backbone is in the final confrontation with the hunter.

She asks the Fat Wolf why he has teeth like that and then clarifies that she means it's awful for a respectable man like a woodcutter to eat so many sweets and pastries and get a toothache as a result. Then she asks the Thin Wolf why he has eyes like that and then explains that his eyes look much too angry and he shouldn't spoil everyone's mood even if he's in a bad mood himself.

About the Little Red Riding Hood / int_9a11f9cf	comment	Informed Species: Due to the severe budget and technical limitations of the time, it is one of Leonid Nechayevâ€™s favourite tropes, and this film is no exception. The wolves are completely human-looking and we only know they are wolves because they say so in an As You Know introductory scene.

Then she changes her mind and lets both of them leave unharmed. They are so shocked that they are left speechless and can only look at her questioningly to make sure she does mean it.

Nobody is Always Lawful Good or Always Chaotic Evil, and Red Riding Hood has to learn a Hard Truth Aesop that sometimes you need to defeat the antagonists via lying and trickery. Subverted after all, because the main point of the story is that nobody is beyond redemption. Moreover, it's Red Riding Hood's friendliness and gentle heart that wins over the wolves, and she in the end forgives them and lets them go.
