History Heartwarming / IntoTheWoods

* During press interviews for the movie, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3ePY7-La6Q James Corden]] often joked that in a movie with witches and giants that the only unbelievable thing in the movie was that Creator/EmilyBlunt's character would leave Corden for Creator/ChrisPine. After watching the youthful exuberance and the easy chemistry between the Baker and the Baker's wife in the song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bw1GCS1UigU It Takes Two]]", it's hard not to agree with Corden.

* The Baker's wife's motherly instincts for Red.
** In the film, instead of trying to stop Red from stealing the bread, the Baker's Wife doesn't mind giving it to her for free because it shows how much she really wants a child.

* In the film adaptation, the first time Rapunzel and the Witch appear on screen, the Witch has brought Rapunzel some blackberries much to her delight.

* Cinderella's break-up with Prince Charming in the movie. Prince Charming had pursued Cinderella throughout film, to the point of being terrifying, and even tried to trap Cinderella in pitch. But the moment she gives him a good reason why she doesn't love him, he backs off. He silently accepts that she doesn't love him any more, apologizes for his behavior, wishes her the best of luck finding a better man then him, and rides away saying that he will always love her, even if he's not faithful to her.

** Similarly, there's the scene when Charming finds Cinderella at her stepfamily's house. Sure you could argue that he was just being insincerely charming, but the way he looks at Cinderella (who is dressed in rags and in the middle of her chores) before calling for the slipper is very sweet. It's believable that he had, in fact, recognized her in that moment.
* In the [[Film/IntoTheWoods film]], when all is said and done, the danger has passed but [[spoiler:the Baker's Wife, Jack's mother, Red's mother, and presumably Red's granny are all dead, and Cinderella has broken up with her "prince charming," leaving her with no place to go. So what does the Baker do? Invites them all to live with him, Cinderella offering to help him take care of the house and children.]] Then the Baker begins to tell the story to his son, and Red and Jack sit down to listen, Cinderella sitting next to the baker. They may have lost so much, but you're content in the knowledge that these people have a family with each other.
* In the open air production, during the reprise of ''Into the Woods'' during the finale of Act 2, in response to "the light is getting dimmer" the Baker sings "I think I see a glimmer" [[spoiler:while looking at the ghost of his wife, and she smiles back.]]

** It arguably becomes less heartwarming when you consider that, depending on one's personal interpretation, that he might not always love Cinderella persay, but instead, might always love the challenge that Cinderella represented: 'The girl that ran away.'
