| Abstract | The purpose of this thesis is to subject Disney's Frozen (2013) and Maleficent (2014) to scrutiny, in order to achieve a better understanding of the company's more recent revisionist approaches to character and plot development. Both movies (especially Frozen) have enjoyed immense popularity among many fans and critics alike, who believe these films to be in alignment with contemporary feminist ideals. By employing both scholarly and popular views, this study offers detailed analyses, close observations and fruitful comparisons, in order to shed more light on the transformation of former fairy-tale villains into heroines and the reasons behind such alterations. |
