Ok, I am completely in love with the movie Frozen [View all]

So, I am probably a bit late to the party, and I know this is probably the point where I get reminded "Disney bad", but I have have to say, I have recently fallen for this movie and the main song, Let It Go. This is a genuinely beautiful and yes, truly feminist fairy tale.


Spoiler Warning:







The two main characters are sisters- Princesses, one of whom grows up to be the Queen and who has magical powers that she has been taught her whole life to suppress, which not surprisingly doesn't work out so well. It is only by accepting and embracing who she is that she can truly be free and come into her own. Not only that, but the true love in the tale is explicitly not the romantic one (there are two potential love interests for the younger sister) but the love the two sisters share. That's what ends up saving the day.

My inner kid just loves this movie.
