History Heartwarming / Frozen2013

* There's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5G21o_Jgpf8 the cut song "We Know Better,"]] sung by the sisters as children that shows their close relationship. It includes them playing a clapping game that they probably made up themselves: "1-2-3 together, clap together, snap together, you and me together, knees together, freeze together, up or down together, princess crown together, always be together, you and me!" It's every bit as cute as it sounds.
** In that song, Elsa sings "When I'm queen" and Anna follows it up with "And I'm your right hand", and later mentions how she'll travel and "tell them of my sister and the magic things she can do". Anna never desires to take the crown. She just loves her sister, and looks up to her.
** The last line of the song, "As long as we're together, you and me" is also both FridgeBrilliance and a TearJerker, when you consider that both sisters are *only* able to triumph and be at their best when they are together.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEVq8CKnZqM The nationwide Let It Go sing-along on Good Morning America]]. Though some were off key, and the song in Times Square is sung at two semitones higher than normal, it really says something as to how much impact Let It Go has had with a bunch of people all across the nation singing together. With Idina Menzel leading it! Arguably one of the cutest moments is the group of kids at Disney World with Anna and Elsa.
** Also in the video is a mash-up of little kids singing it. Sure, [[NarmCharm most of them can barely sing...but they're so darn cute]]!
* Sing-along showings of the film. There's just something magical and heartwarming about a bunch of Frozenites singing happily to the songs they know and love. Footage from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy6C4z2VB6I the El Capitan theater]] is a great example of this. There's even [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZJDYP1r4_U a TV spot showcasing it]]! Just goes to show how much power these songs have, especially Let It Go.
* Elsa's voice actress, Broadway performer Creator/IdinaMenzel, released the [[ChristmasSongs Christmas CD]] ''Holiday Wishes'' in October 2014. While that can be ironically Heartwarming in itself, with the snow queen herself singing wintertime songs, there is one song on the album that Idina sings that is not related strictly to Christmas or the holidays. That song? [[WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}} "When You Wish Upon a Star"]], better known as ''the BootstrappedTheme for Disney itself''. Heartwarming, Awesome, and a happy TearJerker all in one.
** As noted on the page for ChristmasSongs, it's actually considered a Christmas song in the Scandinavian countries (i.e. Norway, Finland, Sweden and Denmark) and Japan, and the "star" in this context was supposedly conflated with the star that led the Magi to Bethlehem. A number of other artists also recorded that song for Christmas albums, including Music/CelticThunder and Music/MaryJBlige.[[note]]In Scandinavia specifically it's tied to the annual TV special ''[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/From_All_of_Us_to_All_of_You From All Of Us To All Of You]]''.[[/note]]
* After a 6 year old girl was diagnosed with a brain tumour, Creator/KristenBell left her a voicemail as Anna and congratulated her on being a "good girl" and being "so brave". She also told her that Queen Elsa would love to make her an honorary princess of Arendelle. It can be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUd2V4c9-YA here.]]
* That the Lopez's approached "Let It Go" from a sympathetic standpoint. They realized this was not the moment for Elsa to turn evil. This was the moment for Elsa finally to be herself.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEiTSCzQDGA Firefighters singing "Let It Go" to calm a terrified 4-year-old girl stuck in an elevator]].
* When a Redditor on [[http://www.reddit.com/r/frozen r/Frozen]] was admitted to hospital for a weekend, the subreddit immediately began making pictures, gifs and videos and sang songs in her name. Not, strictly speaking, related to the film itself but something that shows the sort of atmosphere it is capable of producing.
* When ''Webcomic/CinemaSnobReviewsFrozen'' gets to Olaf comforting Anna, WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob turns a line from ''Film/ChildsPlay'' and flips the context around.
-->'''Snob:''' Olaf shows what it truly means to be "your friend 'till the end".
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z9CabJqIMM The greatest Promposal ever.]]
* There is a Frozen ride in the Norway pavilion in EPCOT at [=DisneyWorld=]. The end of the ride shows Anna and Elsa singing a duet while holding hands and wearing spring colours; after everything they went through in the movie and how cold-looking Elsa's colours were, seeing them together wearing symbols of renewed life is a massive relief.
* Kristoff might be the first of Disney's male love interests to explicitly ask the heroine for permission before kissing her, highlighting the importance of consent.

* When a Redditor on [[http://www.reddit.com/r/frozen r/Frozen]] was admitted to hospital for a weekend, the subreddit immediately began making pictures, gifs and videos [[UpToEleven and sang songs]] in her name. Not, strictly speaking, related to the film itself but something that shows the sort of atmosphere it is capable of producing.

*** And even those lines could be interpreted as happy ones. She's finally happy and doesn't feel the need to cry and she no longer has to hide who she is (in other words, she no longer has to be a "perfect, good girl" for anyone).

** Listen closely to the background music when she says the following quote; a horn plays a rather lively rendition of "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?".

** The fact that Olaf isn't phased at all when Anna & Kristoff first react scared/unsettled by him when they first meet him (Anna screams and Kristoff calls him "creepy" at first); he just keeps being his charming self and wins them over within a minute of meeting them.

** During the song before the above line is spoken, Elsa and Anna are singing their[[DarkerAndEdgier reprise of "For the First Time in Forever"]]. When both sisters make it to the top of the stairs, Anna is just finishing the line "For the first time in forever/I will be right here." How does she end the line? She presses a hand over her heart. Signifying not only that she would always be with her sister, but in her heart, she and Elsa would always be together.

** A quick one with TheCameo of [[Disney/{{Tangled}} Eugene and Rapunzel]], who both appear to still be together and happy.

* Elsa's voice actress, Broadway performer Creator/IdinaMenzel, released the [[ChristmasSongs Christmas CD]] ''Holiday Wishes'' in October 2014. While that can be ironically Heartwarming in itself, with the snow queen herself singing wintertime songs, there is one song on the album that Idina sings that is not related strictly to Christmas or the holidays. That song? [[Disney/{{Pinocchio}} "When You Wish Upon a Star"]], better known as ''the BootstrappedTheme for Disney itself''. Heartwarming, Awesome, and a happy TearJerker all in one.

** Of all the characters in the movie, Anna had wanted to get out and experience life more than anyone else (Much of "For the First Time in Forever" is dedicated towards this longing.) Yet in spite of the burning passion to ''live'', she didn't even hesitate to throw herself in front of a fatal sword blow in a desperate effort to shield her estranged sister. She didn't just put Elsa's needs before herself, she threw away all the hopes and dreams she had been nurturing for the last thirteen years in a split-second decision.
** On top of how brave Anna is when she blocks the sword, it also shows how utterly selfless and forgiving she is. We, the audience, were aware of Elsa's personal conflicts and difficulties, and could fully sympathize with her. Yet by Elsa's own design, Anna has no idea what kind of person her sister is. Elsa had shut Anna out without explanation for thirteen years, had seemingly abandoned her to bury and mourn their parents ''alone'', had her locked up in the castle for years, and then imperiled the entire kingdom. After Anna has risked wolves, exposure, and hostile terrain to find Elsa, while keeping faith that Elsa was not malicious and that the EndlessWinter was a misunderstanding, Anna finally finds Elsa. But Elsa creates an ice monster to chase Anna away, and accidentally strikes her in the heart with ice, which is killing her bit by bit. Worse, Anna doesn't see the look of shock on Elsa's face after she's struck, only the guilt, so she doesn't even ''know'' that it was an accident and that Elsa didn't strike out of temper. Elsa may have had good reasons for all of this, but had we seen the movie purely from Anna's perspective, we could have easily been misled into assuming that Elsa was a villain. Yet in the end, Anna's love for her sister and faith in her is even greater than all the pain caused. Anna is willing to throw her life away for the sister who [[HeroWithBadPublicity had seemingly ruined her life]].

* In the end after Anna decks Hans something fierce. The two sisters share a ''long awaited'' hug, and for a moment you can see Kristoff smiling as if to say [[EarnYourHappyEnding "you two have earned this moment, don't let me stop you."]] Anna's smile back just drives it all home; despite everything the two sisters had to face, it was worth the HappyEnding.

* Anna. So she's this little girl who absolutely loves her sister. Then for reasons she doesn't know (because of the trolls erasing her memories), her parents isolate their family from the world and separate the siblings for 10 years, with her sister turning cold and distant. To make matters worse, she becomes an orphan. When Anna discovers that Elsa has ice magic that everyone is absolutely terrified of and runs away, she goes after her. When Anna gets her heart struck by her sister, she still insists on bringing her back home and fix the whole eternal winter thing. That yes, Elsa is responsible for it, but she doesn't blame her and wants to fix it together. It's made clear throughout the entire movie that absolutely nothing will make her lose faith in Elsa, like she knows in her heart Elsa is just frightened out of her skin. The best part? It's 100% rewarded.

* Just how good, kind and noble both sisters ultimately prove to be despite their flaws, really.
** Anna, Elsa and Kristoff are pretty much three of the kindest, noblest and most caring protagonists any Disney film has ever come up with. They pretty much even steal the show even from one of the scariest villains Disney has ever come up with!
