It's terrible tresh I assure you! Try just once to read the book "Notre Dame de Paris" and you'll have quite a different opinion. And in general try NEVER to wath Hollywood versions of classic literarure. They are spoilers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38870075.post-76136853950764338942013-01-25T18:43:09.124-06:002013-01-25T18:43:09.124-06:00I see you didnt watched the movie very carefully.
...I see you didnt watched the movie very carefully.<br /><br />Frollo is trying to kill gypsies because he believes they're worse, not pure race, hes a racist. The reason he gives to Phoebus is just cover for his personal hate and prejudice.<br /><br />He saved Quasimodo because for that one time, when Arcdeacon told him, he thought that he indeed killed innocent woman and tried to kill her baby. So, as a very religious man, he tried to save his own soul from damnation, like "one good deed erases one bad deed".<br /><br />He wants Esmeralda, its lust, not love. If she would say "yes" he would just tell the crowd that she admitted her guilt and asked for forgiveness and he as a man of god has forgiven her. Then take her with him and no one would see her again.<br /><br />Frollo really IS complex and great character. At the end, he doesnt care about the revolution, because HE IS MAD. We went mad long before that, and when that devil-cat like gargoyle comes to life, its simpy his imagination (symbolic devil taking him to hell).Just passingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38870075.post-5781543645171453862012-11-26T13:07:29.373-06:002012-11-26T13:07:29.373-06:00I am a big fan of "Hunchback" though I a...I am a big fan of "Hunchback" though I admit the films has problems (And those problems are named Victor, Hugo, and Laverne.).<br /><br />On Frollo fan girls. Having known a few (Not me), I can answer this: They like him because he's a complex "bad boy" (And I use the term "boy" loosely.). Plus Tony Jay had one of the best baritones ever.<br /><br />And trust me, he wasn't going to marry her. Make her his secret mistress maybe. Bone her once, then kill her and dump her body in the river possibly. But trust me, he wasn't hearing wedding bells.MeganKoumorinoreply@blogger.com
