About Frozen
Frozen
is a 2013 American 3D computer animated musical fantasy–comedy film
produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney
Picture. Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale The Snow
Queen, the film tells the story of a fearless princess who sets off on
an epic journey alongside a rugged iceman, his loyal pet reindeer, and a
naive snowman to find her estranged sister, whose icy powers have
inadvertently trapped the kingdom in eternal winter.
It
features the voices of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Jonathan Groff, Josh
Gad, and Santino Fontana. Christophe Beck, who had worked on Disney's
award-winning short Paperman, was hired to compose the film's orchestral
score, while husband-and-wife songwriting team Robert Lope and Kristen
Andersen Lopez wrote the songs.
Frozen
premiered at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywod,California, on November
19, 2013, and went into general theatrical release on November 27. It
was met with strongly positive reviews from critics and audiences, with
some film critics considering Frozen to be the best Disney
animated musical feature film since the studio renaissance era. The film
was also a massive commercial success; it accumulated nearly $1.3
billion in worldwide box office revenue, $400 million of which was
earned in the United States and Canada and $247 million of which was
earned in Japan. It ranks as the highest grossing animated film of all
time, the third highest-grossing original film of all time, the fifth
highest grossing film of all time, the highest grossing film of 2013,
and the third highest grossing film in Japan. By January 2015, Frozen had become the best-selling Blu-Ray Disc in the United States
