The final movie in my blog series will be the newest Disney
movie to date, which also happens to my personal favorite Frozen. Right from
the beginning I fell in love with its upbeat musical tunes, magic, and of
course Snowman Olaf. Overall this movie seems to have a pretty positive not
finally showing the two female characters overcoming their hardship, and succeeding.
However like every other film they cannot do this all alone.
When
looking at race in this movie we can see that all of the main characters are
white just like in the typical Disney film. Not only that but its dealing with
the typical white girl being brave and facing a challenge no one else has ever
encountered. It is interesting to see that this movie like other Disney movies was
based on Norway. Why do writers continually use the same setting even when they
have so many different options? This film reminds me a lot about Ella Enchanted
and how she had to live with the curse of obedience; however Ella was not born
with the curse like the main charter in frozen, but was rather given it at
birth.
When you look at the film overall you do not see very many people of
color unless it is in the scene with the ball which is against what is actually
seen in the real world. Why did writers choose to make Hans white even though
he was from a different country then the main characters? They could have taken
this opportunity to incorporate different races and make the movie more
diverse.
