<p>This scene is SO important. Maleficent is with someone she trusts, someone she considers a friend. And then the next thing she knows, she wakes up in pain, bleeding, with her wings burned off. A huge part of her has been destroyed.</p>
<p>Rape is so prominent in our culture that <b>it is in a Disney movie</b>. Maybe not explicitly, but it is very clear what this scene represents and it is <i>so</i> sad.</p>

<p>I fucking cried my eyes out during this scene</p>

<p>AJ even confirmed that this is what this scene was a metaphor for (<a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2655642/Angelina-Jolie-reveals-harrowing-Maleficent-wing-tearing-scene-metaphor-rape.html" target="_blank">x</a>) - just because i saw someone say today that this is not what this scene is about</p>
<blockquote>
<p>‘We were very conscious that it was a metaphor for rape’: The actress explained how the scene in which her character has her wings ripped off her body while in a drug-induced sleep had to be something ‘so violent and aggressive’ that it would make her ‘lose all sense of her maternity, her womanhood and her softness' <br/></p>
