    A major departure from Andersen's work is the wicked nature of the Snow Queen, who has been changed from the central antagonist of the story into the Disney movie's main protagonist. Andersen's Snow Queen is definitively evil; she entices a young boy away from his family and home with soft blandishments, all the while anticipating he will freeze to...

    Elsa maintains similar powers possessed by the Snow Queen, although they are softer and watered-down. Both have the ability to create expansive ice castles, control wintry weather conditions, and conjure up snow creatures to be used for personal protection. Neither queen seems to be affected by the cold, either. A major difference between their pow...

    One of the most notable differences between Andersen's fairy tale and Disney's film adaptation is the exclusion of nearly every original character, who have been replaced with heroines and sidekicks who serve as comedic foils and are perfecting for merchandising. "The Snow Queen" centers around the lives of best friends Kai and Gerda, two young chi...

    Not all the characters in Frozen are new; some have merely undergone unrecognizable transformations. The brusque and violently problematic character of the Little Robber Girl is remodeled into the affable Kristoff (Jonathan Groff), a swashbuckling ice harvester who joins Anna on her quest to bring back her older sister and rescue their winter-blast...

    Although Frozen keeps Gerda/Anna's archetypal journey to the Snow Queen's castle in tact, it drastically changes many of the original story's subplots. "The Snow Queen" begins with the Devil, disguised as an evil troll, who creates a mirror that distorts reality and later shatters into fragments of ice that plunge into the eyes and hearts of people...

    Anderson's original story is laden with Christian undertones and abounds with religious motifs. The story mentions biblical imagery like angels and the Devil, and it is Gerda's recitation of the Lord's Prayer - piety that manifests as religious phenomena - that ultimately enables her to defeat the iniquitous Snow Queen. The fairy tale is also palpa...

    Although both works share an important theme at their core - that is, selfless love conquers everything - Disney ups the story's present-day relevance by adding more contemporary themes. While many of the "good" characters in "The Snow Queen" are linked in matrimony or paired into couples, Frozen spotlights the trending value of self-reliance and p...

    In "The Snow Queen", Kai and Gerda share a window with a rose garden between their adjacent buildings. The friends communicate through this window throughout the year until winter freezes the window pane and bars their contact until the warming thaw of spring. At the beginning of Frozen, audiences are introduced to younger versions of the film's tw...

    "The Snow Queen" begins in an unspecified town, most likely somewhere in Northern Europe. Later Gerda's journey takes her across Lapland (a topographical region encompassing the northern areas of of present day Finland, Sweden, Norway, and parts of Russia), up to Finmark and farther north to the island of Spitsbergen. While Frozen keeps the same Sc...

  5. Nov 27, 2013 · The perky, quirky Anna (now voiced by a likable Kristen Bell) is a little nervous but overjoyed to see her sister. The reserved and reluctant Elsa (Broadway veteran Idina Menzel) remains distant, and with gloved hands hopes not to freeze anything and reveal her true self on coronation day.
