The Little Match Girl

And to think that now we turn a blind eye to forced child labor and child slavery in other countries, profit always seems to be more important.

I always cry at this movie just because it makes me miss my own grandma terribly.

Actually, I don't feel sad about this at all! That's awkward, I actually felt really happy that she's away from all the madness. She died happily, and that was what it was all about.

Death is not at all brutal, she found heaven.

Seriously, I began crying when I saw this... So sad and beautiful. And I completely agree, Andersen was a genius. <3

Beautiful animation style

[ShperryH]

I know. I thought it was simply beautiful when I first heard it. It was supposed to be in Fantasia 2000, but the director was told it was too sad to put in, that they wanted a more upbeat and optimistic story. Oh, well...

I love this story. I grew up with it and it made, and still makes, me cry. It's such a sad and brutal story, yet strangely heartwarming and beautiful. Andersen was a genius. I'm also glad that disney didn't change that she dies at the end. It's the entire point of the story.
