Frozen is a 2013 American computer animated musical epic fantasy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 53rd animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. Loosely based on Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale The Snow Queen, and featuring the voices of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Jonathan Groff, Josh Gad, and Santino Fontana;
the film tells the story of a fearless princess who sets off on an epic
journey alongside a rugged, thrill-seeking mountain man, his loyal pet
reindeer, and a hapless snowman to find her estranged sister, whose icy
powers have trapped the kingdom in eternal winter.
Frozen underwent several story treatments for several years, before being commissioned in 2011, with a screenplay written by Jennifer Lee, and both Chris Buck and Lee serving as directors. 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 Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez penned the songs.
The film premiered at the El Capitan Theatre on November 19, 2013, and went into general theatrical release on November 27. Upon its release, Frozen
was a box office success and received critical acclaim, with several
film critics considering it to be the best Disney animated musical since
the studio's renaissance era.
Fearless optimist Anna teams up with Kristoff in an epic journey,
encountering Everest-like conditions, and a hilarious snowman named Olaf
in a race to find Anna's sister Elsa, whose icy powers have trapped the
kingdom in eternal winter.
