My Dad took me to the cinema to see Walt Disney's Snow White & The Seven Dwarves when I was five. It terrified me, and put me off cartoons for a very long ti me.
My favourite fairy story is by Hans Christian Andersen. The Tinder Box, about a soldier who meets a witch upon the road, and retrieved her tinder box from under a tree. The tale involves three dogs on chests of copper, silver and gold, a king, queen and princess. I really thought that having a magical tinder box would be fabulously exciting.
I kept the book, which was an anthology of Hans Christian Andersen's stories, and have it to my daughter when she was old enough to read it. She still has it.
