 DO YOU HAVE A SNOW QUEEN IN YOUR LIFE?? November 23, 2008
My daughter got involved in a very controlling relationship. It seemed to change the core of who she was. I tried to explain the story of the Snow Queen. I remembered this movie about the ice splinter getting in the little boys eye, it froze his heart and he was under the spell of the Snow Queen. He became a different kind of person and forgot all about those who truly loved him. But it was that same love that didn't give up on him that eventually melted that ice splinter and he was back to his old self. I purchased the movie that I must have seen over 40 years ago.
I like to think, though quite simply done and a bit antiquated, that she got the point somehow. All I know is the Snow Queen is gone and the splinter melted.
Thanks Amazon

I saw this film on television when I was ten years old, and have never forgotten it. Whatever flaws were transferred in the translation and dubbing, it is nevertheless a wonderful film, and I'm looking forward to seeing it on my television screen again.
I still have my beloved record album of this movie and both film and recording hold up after all these years May 9, 2008

I recall being a child and listening to the record version, based on the movie. Actually, the record may have been the original movie, full length, put on a record. If it was edited and shortened, they certainly left in the best parts.
IMPORTANT INFO FOR POTENTIAL BUYERS: Several versions of this exist on VHS and/or DVD. The one you want is the one with Sandra Dee, Tommy Kirk and (as much as you may hate this part) the voice of Art Linkletter just before the movie starts. Why? Because that is the definitive version, the one you may recall from childhood if you are a Baby Boomer and the one that endures the test of time.
Not a typical Disney type of film, the movie and soundtrack contains all the basic plot outlines of The Snow Queen (two young children, a boy and girl fall in love until the evil Snow Queen hardens the heart of one) but it isn't overly prettified for children. I was absolutely entranced by both the film and music as a child and the clearly Russian flavor of the music, very romantic. Some of the animals have European accents. Patty McCormack (yes, the same child star who appeared in The Bad Seed) does a tour de force performance as Angel, the child torn between evil and good. Sandra Dee makes a fine Gerta.
When she sings the very lovely "Do What Your Heart is Feeling" I am still swept with nostalgia. It is a bittersweet song with lyrics that go, "Do what your heart is feeling...what is the point concealing...but do it while you're young...go after the one you love, he needs you..but do it, don't wait". Seeing these lyrics, stripped of musical background and put on the page, I realize how impossible it is to describe the plaintive quality of Sandra Dee's voice as she sings these words, the yearning and pain. I can only urge you to see the movie and catch the performances of her, Tommy Kirk, Patty McCormack and many others. The Snow Queen comes across as formidable as well, truly cold and heartless, never yielding. This isn't for very young children (or use your judgment about that).
This is a classic film but I am admittedly biased. I see it through waves of nostalgia and memories of kiddie matinees at the movie theatre, feet stuck to the floor (usually due to some candy tossed around by various children), entranced by the story of The Snow Queen.
 Dim transfer, lousy DVD April 8, 2008
Lovely Soviet animated film from 1957, marred by a badly faded, scratched, and spliced print. The English language track, featuring Tommy Kirk and Sandra Dee, dates from the film's 1959 US release -- as does the live-action prologue with Art Linkletter. No Russian-language soundtrack here, folks. The video transfer is so dim and grainy that night scenes are all but unwatchable. For such a steep retail price, this DVD is an insult. An average dollar-bin disc looks better.
Great childhood memories!! June 9, 2007

I was so excited to find this on DVD! This was one of my favorite films growing up and I never thought I'd get a chance to see it again. I hope I'm not naive in thinking that today's children would love it as much as I still do. I do some baby sitting for kids in the neighborhood and I thought I'd bring it with me the next time....hope the kids have fun with it!
If you're over 40 or 45, you may also remember this film. As I get older, I appreciate my childhood memories so much more. I remember going to the Village Theater with my best friend and seeing this on a Saturday matinee. Sweet, sweet memories! Sorry if it sounds hokey! :)
