Brenda Chapman was misquoted in a recent interview about Disney's new movie "Frozen" when the journalist who reported her opinion about the two new female characters, Anna and Elsa, saying that Chapman was appalled by how similar they were.
Here was her defense:
“And it made perfect sense. The two characters, I believe, are sisters (what I gleaned from the trailer) — maybe even twins — I don’t know because I have not yet seen it. Of course, if they look so much alike, it would be difficult to give them individual expressions and make them feel like different people. I was actually trying to defend the poor guy! His only mistake was to use the word ‘pretty’ instead of ‘appealing’… which I have no doubt was his meaning behind it…. My other comments were about the industry in general needing more variety in female characters — both physically and character personality — and NOT at Frozen, which I am very much looking forward to seeing.”
