Tangled and Management . . .

So I'm trying to write a paper for my Principles of Management class where I need to relate a piece of popular culture (in this case, the Disney movie "Tangled") to the class. Why would I choose a Disney movie of all things to compare to management?? Well, I don't think I could satisfactorily answer that question. The only thing I could say is, "I couldn't think of a single thing to do it on, I didn't want to read another book, and I like this movie and felt like watching it again." And hey, I found ways that it relates to Principles of Management. My problem is the fifth requirement for the paper: "In addition to the source material, rely on the text [ie the textbook] and at least one other source (i.e. business journal article) to make your case." So, uh, how do I do that when nobody analyzes the movie "Tangled" with a view toward management? That's what I thought. Crap. Guess we'll see.
