Funny moment


Just wanted to share:
When the thief comes back with the chest granting every wish, he goes and shows off to - is it his mother (I caught the last part of the movie only)? She is in rags. He promptly changes himself into a prince, then makes a horse appear, then makes some kind of bread appear, which he eats heartily. Then he goes off, leaving his mother (?) in rags, without food...
Bye bye mom!!!! i am off to be married richly and happily, see you later.
Reminds me a bit of the end of Snow White, when she says bye to everyone so quickly and without tears, like "I can't wait to get out of here".

It's not his mother, it's an old hermit who lives by the entrance to the Enchanted Forest. Before Fairbanks goes into the Forest the hermit informs Fairbanks of which tree to touch for guidance.
