Shrek, the successful animated classic, is more than a parody. The movie shows its producer Jeffrey Katzenberg's retaliation for his ex-cooperator Miller Eisner, the Chairman of Disney. Jeffrey filed a lawsuit that charge Eisner with his taking advantage of his power to bring his friends benefit, which leads to Jeffery's loss during his tenure in Disney.
The loss annoyed Jeffery , which cause the leaving of Jeffery. After the end of his working in Disney, he set up DreamWorks with cofounders. But he seems never to let the contradiction go. The blockbuster effect of Shrek creates a long distant before Disney as it is busy with making many sequels to its former successful movies.And the context of the cartoon also shows Jeffery's satire about Eisner. The villain, Lord Farquaad, is three feet, which is a payback for Eisner once making fun of his short height as the word" the little midget". Jeffery ridicules Eisner's judging people by appearance. It is also the main idea of the movie: we need to know who we are ,what is our strength, and in this way, we need to love ourselves. Whether you are a princess,or you just are a big, green, stinky ogre like Shrek, you can find your own love and happiness.
