Re-Write Idea

My idea for the re-write is based on the Disney movie Aladdin. For those of you who haven't seen it, it is the story of a regular village guy in the middle east who meets a princess and falls in love. But since the princess can only marry a prince, he has no chance to be with her. He is then captured by the evil Sultan's advisor and forced to help him in his plan to take over the world. While doing so, he comes across a lamp which holds a genie that gives him three wishes. He wishes to become Prince Ali to win Jasmine's affections, but he is caught. Sultan's advisor, Jafar, steals the lamp and gets three wishes of his own. Aladdin ends up saving the Princess and her father, the Sultan and in the end, the Sultan agrees to let Aladdin and Princess Jasmine be together. 

Obviously, in this story, Aladdin is the one who is marginalized, but breaks through his trials and tribulations in the end. For my re-write, I want to focus on Jasmine being the marginalized one by putting her in the village and making the village people not accept her. I will make her the central character and by putting her in a situation where she doesn't belong, she will reveal what really goes on in the palace and how everyone takes it for granted. I am going to make her meet Aladdin and instead of Aladdin trying to become something he is not to be with her, Jasmine will try to fit into his world to be with him. In the end, she will make the villagers accept her and Jasmine and Aladdin will live happily ever after. :)
