I think that, in terms of comparing the films from the early years to the 1990’s, if Beauty and the Beast is the Pinocchio, and The Little Mermaid is the Snow White, this film is the Fantasia. Beauty and the Beast producer, Don Hahn, was also involved in this film. The directors behind The Hunchback of Notre Dame were Kirk Wise and Gary Trousdale, who had directed Beauty and the Beast, worked on the story for The Lion King, and would go on to direct and write Atlantis: The Lost Empire.

However, it is based on a very tragic and sad book. It’s a gorgeous movie, with an amazing soundtrack, and I adore it. Released on June 21 st, 1996, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is a Disney film that baffles me. And, of course, if you have any thoughts, burning or otherwise, please share in the comments!
