“The Red Boots” is based on Hans Christian Andersen’s story “The Red Shoes.” Andersen’s fairy tales often end cruelly and unhappily. Neither the little match girl nor the little mermaid live happily ever after in the originals. And so it is for the poor orphan, cursed by a mysterious old soldier to dance in her beautiful red shoes until she begs to have her feet chopped off.

Although Cutter’s version isn’t quite as brutal as the original, both demonstrate the sin of pride.
