    Can't you just accept this film for what it is, a charming well told story?

            The fairies might be angels..
            QUESTION:Why isn't Mel Gibson properly credited in the actor's list in the movie? (didn't he want to show his name?!)

                    Well,
                    Fairytale
                    was made by his production company, Icon Productions, so perhaps he thought it'd be a bit self-indulgent to give himself a credit for a role that's (presumably; I haven't seen the film) not much more than a cameo, in a movie where he's the "boss", as it were.

                        I am a little confused about this part: If Elsie and Frances had tried to "represent" the fairies as they had seen them, then why did Elsie not draw them from memory? Both girls stated that they had seen the Beck fairies numerous times, I would assume on a weekly, or even daily basis, and they had ample time to observe the darling things up to the point where they almost ignored the fairies. If that was the case, then why did Elsie need to trace her fairies from drawings by Arthur Shepperson from the

                              They admitted they were fake, but they never denied seeing the fairies.

                                Wrong! Only Frances claimed this.

                                  Maybe the fairies were "fake but accurate" like Dan Rather's memos about George W. Bush's 1972 miltary records that were re-created in 2004.

                                      But it is "true" in the sense that it is not a created fictional storyline.

                                          That would be the fifth one, the most blantant hoax of all five. It is called, "fairies and their sunbath" and it was made through a double exposure. Both Frances and Elsie claimed to have taken the photo. Why? Because both of them HAD!
