I know people enjoy the discourse surrounding how Eugene cut Rapunzel’s hair (he was literally dying and it doesn’t even look bad don’t come for me) but I think there’s one specific way that that scene could have been made better.
As Rapunzel was rushing over to Eugene once Mother Gothel had let him free and he was bleeding out, I think that she should have been tripping over her hair in the rush. She had it perfectly behind herself as she knelt down next to him, but I just think it would have been so much if there was a small wordless struggle as she knelt down. Pushing it out of her face, getting it caught on a bit of filagree on Eugene’s jacket or something.
And yes this obviously is for poetic reasons. Something something the thing that has held value all of your life is getting in the way of the new thing and is causing trouble even moments before it’s death something something.
