(Anonymous) 2016-05-09 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)Anna was angry for exactly four lines of dialogue, and half of it seems born from being told she can't marry a man she just met.
Compare that initial 'anger' to when Hans suggests that maybe it's not safe for her to go & confront Elsa, and her response is "Elsa would never hurt me." which...doesn't really take into account the ways Elsa already has hurt her? Emotionally? With 15 years of abandonment? I mean, ffs, Elsa couldn't even come out of her room and comfort her when their parents died.
Idk. I'm just telling you how I feel, and that initial scene with Anna demanding answers for why Elsa's always shut her out compounded with every scene afterwards where she's nothing but positive & upbeat & determined that they can fix this together & Anna reassuring Elsa that Anna's not afraid anymore, and finally, ANNA being the one to make the sacrifice and act of true love to save her own damn life...it doesn't work for me. Those four lines of confrontational, angry dialogue, wherein the only answer she actually gets are the spikes of ice Elsa sends flying across the floor in Anna's direction don't work for me.
15 years of emotional abandonment distilled into an almost constant stream of positivity and positive regard for a damn near stranger you just happen to share DNA with juxtaposed with four lines of dialogue chastising Elsa for shutting people out, demanding to know why Elsa always shuts HER out, etc...it's not balanced well, it's not realistic, and ultimately, it's a pretty dissatisfying movie.
