  Little Red Riding Hood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Her red hood could represent the bright sun which is ultimately swallowed by the terrible night (the wolf).
This was apparently because Little Red Riding Hood was shown carrying alcohol (presumably wine) to her grandmother, and some were worried about the inclusion of alcohol in a children's story.
Little Red is depicted as a lolita-type character who cuts off the wolf's legs (a metaphor for castration) and rapes him in the final act.

 Little Red Riding Hood (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Little Red Riding Hood is a 1997 fl and white short movie (12 minutes long).
Combined with the teasing of the wolf after she escaped to make him follow her this short movie presents an image of "Little Red Riding Hood" that is mildly put: "not entirely innocent".
As such the movie is clearly based on one of the earliest version of the Little Red Riding Hood fairytale, known as "The False Grandmother".

 Little Red Riding Hood
Shavit argues that it is a satire about "the city gentleman who does not hesitate to take advantage of the poor village girl"; she notes an eroticism in the description of the little girl as a specific element encouraging the satiric reading, and the moral at the end tends to reinforce it.
Zipes suggests that the red cap (chaperon) signified the village girl's nonconformity, in that such caps were worn by the aristocracy and middle classes, not the peasantry.
Little Red becomes a symbol of May flowers, the wolf of the devouring winter who must be overcome each year.

 Little Red Riding Hood
Red Riding Hood, however, was confident enough in her own budding sexuality that such obvious Freudian imagery did not intimidate her.
Red Riding Hood said, "Oh, I forgot you are as optically challenged as a bat.
Red Riding Hood screamed, not out of alarm at the wolf's apparent tendency toward crossdressing, but because of his willful invasion of her personal space.

 LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD
Red's mother is angry with her for returning so late; she has heard terrible things lately about a ferocious wolf who is loose in the forest, and very dangerous.
Red remarks at how strange her voice is today, how big her eyes are, how long and hairy her ears are, and how big her feet are, but the Wolf explains these things away.
The relationship between Red, the Wolf, the Skunk, and in fact, the whole community (all of which may be intact in the original Perrault tale), could be interpreted in the classic Freudian sense as the painfully erotic struggle between lust and innocence, evil and good, or simply dirty old men and sexy youth...

 Short Stories: Little Red Riding Hood by Brothers Grimm
Little Red Riding Hood raised her eyes, and when she saw the sunbeams dancing here and there through the trees, and pretty flowers growing everywhere, she thought: 'Suppose I take grandmother a fresh nosegay; that would please her too.
Little Red Riding Hood, however, had been running about picking flowers, and when she had gathered so many that she could carry no more, she remembered her grandmother, and set out on the way to her.
Red Riding Hood, however, quickly fetched great stones with which they filled the wolf's belly, and when he awoke, he wanted to run away, but the stones were so heavy that he collapsed at once, and fell dead.

 Little Red Riding Hood
A third chair sat empty between them, in front of it a young woman, in a skimpy red dress with a short driedblood-red hooded cloak covering her head and shoulders, was gazing up at the moon.
Red's tongue slowly flicked out and licked the inside of his wrist, the bumps on her tongue catching slightly on the ridges of the tendons under his skin.
As Red looked up at him again to judge how he was doing, he tried to leer back at her but realized that his mask was hiding everything about him from her...

Little Red Riding Hood was feeling so happy and cheerful that she forgot all that her mother had said to her about not speaking to strangers.

One time she made her a present, a small, red velvet cap, and since it was so becoming and the maiden insisted on always wearing it, she was called Little Red Cap.
Little Red Cap looked around and saw how the rays of the sun were dancing through the trees back and forth and how the woods were full of beautiful flowers.
Meanwhile, Little Red Cap had been running around and looking for flowers, and only when she had as many as she could carry did she remember her grandmother and continue on the way to her house again.

Trina Schart Hyman used to pretend she was Little Red Riding Hood when she was a little girl, wearing a red cape sewn by her mother.
Little Red learns her lessons--to keep her promises, to stay on the path, to mind her manners, and to avoid talking to big, bad wolves--lessons parents still try to teach their children many generations after the Brothers Grimm first recorded this story.
Children enjoy the fact that though the little girl did not listen to her mother, she is still saved at the end by a kind old man and she lives to remember her lesson.

Little Red Riding Hood set out immediately to go to her grandmother, who lived in another village.

 Ongoing Tales Fairy Tale Little Red Riding Hood
She was a happy, merry little child, with a smile and a gentle word for everybody, and so you may easily believe that everybody loved her, and was glad to catch a glimpse of her golden curls and her scarlet cloak as she tripped along, singing, under the green boughs.
It seemed very dark in there after the bright sunlight outside, and all Red Riding-Hood could see was that the window-curtains and the bed-curtains were still drawn, and her grandmother seemed to be lying in bed with the bed-clothes pulled almost over her head, and her great white-frilled nightcap nearly hiding her face.
Now, you and I have guessed by this time, although poor Red Riding-Hood never even thought of such a thing, that it was not her Grannie at all, but the wicked Wolf, who had hurried to the cottage and put on Grannie's nightcap and popped into her bed, to pretend that he was Grannie herself.

 Lesson Plans - Little Red Riding Hood Meets—A Golden Retriever?
Explain that years ago, when the story of Little Red Riding Hood was first told, people did not know nearly as much about wolves as we do today.
They tended to be afraid of wolves and to therefore make the wolves in their stories be "big" and "bad." Point out that today, we know much more about wolves and realize that wolves are not nearly as scary as they appear to be in these stories.
Discuss as a class the ways that the Little Red Riding Hood story could be changed to be more realistic, as opposed to the "all the better to eat you with, my dear" wolf mentality.
