English Lyrics:
Beata Maria
You know I am a righteous man
Of my virtue I am justly proud
Beata Maria
You know I'm so much purer than
The common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd
Then tell me, Maria,
Why I see her dancing there
Why her smouldering eyes still scorch my soul
I feel her, I see her
The sun caught in her raven hair
Is blazing in me out of all control
Like fire
Hellfire
This fire in my skin
This burning desire
Is turning me to sin
It's not my fault
I'm not to blame
It is the gypsy girl
the witch who sent this flame
It's not my fault
If in God's plan
He made the Devil so much
Stronger than the man
Protect me, Maria
Don't let this siren cast her spell
Don't let her fire sear my flesh and bone
Destroy Esmeralda
And let her taste the fires of Hell
Or else let her be mine and mine alone
(Guard: Minister Frollo, the gypsy has escaped
Frollo: What?
Guard: She's nowhere in the Cathedral, she's gone.
Frollo: But how -? Never mind. Get out, you idiot!
I'll find her, I'll find her if I have to burn down all of Paris!)
Hellfire
Dark fire
Now gypsy, it's your turn
Choose me or your pyre
Be mine or you will burn
God have mercy on her
God have mercy on me
But she will be mine
Or she will burn!
"Be mine or you will burn"

Just seeing that after frollo gives it to u;)!
how dare you make me laugh?!

Guard: "Sir? Why are you telling the fireplace how aroused you are?"
“GET OUT YOU IDIOT!!”
"Oh your still here!"
"Get the hell out"
God watching like:
:/ “really man???”
''At least I'm not a man that get turned on by a painting of a hand
NOW GET OUT!"
@@ihavethehighground8697 Aha, jojo finds a way to be in every damn comment section
I love how, as he is singing this, Esmerelda happens to escape. It is LITERALLY God's response to his prayer. He literally asked "either make her gone from me, or give her to me" and God immediately responded "Ok, she's gone". And his response to the guard is "Nevermind, get out you idiot, I'll find her, and I'll find her if I have to burn down all of Paris." Yeah, you can blame Satan or God all you want, it's a you problem my guy. You were given an answer and brushed it aside immediately.
He gets exactly what he asks for, but not the way he wanted it. God gave him what he needed exactly when he needed it, but he's too obsessed to realize it, and suffers the consequences.
That is brilliant writing. I never thought of it that way.
this movie does the job of explaining how God can speak to us at times surprisingly well, there'll never appear an angel from heaven to tell you a way out, nor will you hear a voice so strong it'll make you deaf, a door will be open in a subtle way or even apparent and in rare cases does He actually speaks but even then, they're mostly words that mark us on the inside and won't leave easily not things that'll be apparent
Sadly many people don't understand how to listen to God's voice and thus are left wondering where is the answer to their prayer.

Check out this new Claude Frollo book
Claude Frollo by Starr Lewis
Find it on google
@Starr Lewis The Author Where does it say that they want the book?
Not pointing fingers, but you kinda stole this comment.
The Bible does mention that you will be put in the presence of angels and not know it
And he quite literally says "get out you idiot" just showing how blind and corrupt frollo is
One of the scariest Disney villains in my opinion. Because he’s the one who’s most likely to exist in real life.
As someone who does sexual assault or has lust for anyone?
@@Sogood869 Okay, but what does that gotta do with Quasimodo's innocent longing for acceptance in the society? That's what got me.
If frollo was full of people at the same time, it would be the evangelists
Yeah he’s just like the grand vizier of the Spanish Inquisition
@@michaelterrell5061 gaston is also realistic a muscle head who can convince other idiots around them
One of the things I love most about this scene is the symbolism at 2:22, Frollo's guard comes from an area of mass emitted light resembling God sending an angel to Frollo saying that Esmeralda has escaped the church and that he doesn't have to worry about her anymore and giving him a second chance to let his obsessions go, but declining it over his lustful desires for Esmeralda and rejects his chance of redemption. This truly makes Frollo one of the best and scariest Disney villains of all time
Then the last part where it looks like HE is in fire
He had his eyes closed but I think god still tried to at least hint better about his future demise if he went down this path
If god really wanted him to become kind why didn’t they give very obvious hints that they’re going to hell if they continue down this path
@@Eyeofdust @powdereyes2210 Frollo had the most obvious hint of all time: he prayed that Esmeralda would not have an effect on him, and that ig Esmeralda would not be with him, that she would be doomed to Hell. Seconds after, he receives notice that Esmeralda has escaped, meaning she can't have any effect on him unless he chooses, since she wants nothing to do with him. Also, in Frollo's eyes, that's effectively damnation since she is a gypsy. However, he chooses to not recognize this as such, despite having committed strong acts of discrimination against gypsies. God answered Frollo's prayer, but he didn't like the answer, even though it was exactly what he asked for. Frollo simply let the devil influence him because he loved the rush of arrogance and lust.
@OURO8ORUO God is all-knowing and all-powerful but he can only do so much? 🤔
Also everything is apparently according to his plan, so really Frollo was doomed from the start.
@@100organicfreshmemes5i like how you went "if god is all-knowing and powerful, why didn't he do more ?", totally forgetting about free will in this scenario
If God were to just give us very obvious hints at our faces, we would instantly change our actions in fear of going to hell. But this would make our actions influenced by such event, instead of what we would actually do if the path wasn't simply show to you, thus going against the concept of free will by influence.
@@Eyeofdustif you think about it, people even irl blame god for everything bad that has happened to them, But really the only way they can be saved is for them to realize that God will not help them if they themselves do nothing to advance and forgive themselves.
Frollo: "But she will be mine or she will burn!!"
Stone gargoyle: *uno reverse card*
I liked how his death kinda tied in with the beginning where the priest says that Notre Dame itself has seen what he has done and that he can't lie to the eyes of God.
Well, Notre Dame paid him back in kind.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame is the Disney movie you don't really like as a child but when you grow up you realise it's a masterpiece
So true, so, so true. Well, I kinda liked it when I was little, but it wasn’t one of the films that I would watch all the time. Now that I’m older, it’s one of my favourite films.
It actually was one of my favorite movies when I was little 😂
I actually liked it as a kid and now my 8 year old cousin likes it since we just finished it again
@@dusk-wisteria me too lol
I'm thirteen and I love this movie.
Esmerelda: just literally minding her own business, not bothering anyone
Frollo: and I took that personally
Though to be fair at the festival she danced provocatively before sitting on his lap and kissing his nose.
A wildfire can start from the tiniest spark
love how Disney can make a whole villain out of victim blaming & some guy still has to show up in the comments like “well, to be fair, she WAS asking for it, so.”
@@cyberpsychopompDon’t think that’s what he was saying. Obviously Esmeralda didn’t do anything wrong but it’d be wrong to say Frollo’s feelings were random or sporadic it was just something that grew based off of his actual interaction with her, it’d make him a lot less threatening if she was just some random girl that’d never interacted with him.
One of the rare bad guy songs where the bad guy isn't having the time of their life.
The bad guy having their time of their life 😂
Their is a phrase in the linty for priests that prays for people like him . Those poor priests,they know its rong but the devil keeps it at them .

OpenAardvark41 It’s Disney. Historical/source material accuracy isn’t exactly their forte
That’s sad but true
I can’t believe Disney had the balls to make this movie. Sad we will never see anything this good again.
Can't imagine how much darker they'll make it when it gets the live action treatment.
@@Unversed333 It'll get lighter, significantly lighter, because disney (and modern parents) now think of children as unspeakably fragile

It's a good story about Good vs Evil..very interesting and spiritual how they bring up Heaven and Hell often which of course is real.

I personally laughed my ass off when after the scene he says “Yes, I just had a little trouble with the fireplace “

"it's not my fault, I'm not to blame..."
The background singers are singing "mea culpa, mea culpa" during that part, which means "my fault, my fault" and is part of an old prayer of repentance that says, "through my fault, through my fault, through my most grevious fault" (mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa).
The background singers are head on contradicting him.
Awesome catch
The whole sequence starts with the "confiteor Deo", which is the beginning of the Catholic Penitential Act. And Frollo repeats it with his starting words (beatae Mariae). It's masterfully embedded in the religious scene with Frollo's refusal of his own guilt and his estrangement from the "right" path.
Those are the words from the Penitential Act: Confiteor deo omnipotenti, beatae Mariae semper virgini, beato Micaeli arcangelo, sanctis apostolis, omnibus sanctis et tibi pater, quia peccavi nimis, mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, kyrie Eleison. Wich means I confess to almighty God, to holy Virgin Mary, to holy Archangel Michael, to holy apostles, to all of saints and to you, my father, because I have committed many sins, through my fault, my fault, my most grevious fault. Lord have mercy on me.
Thank you so much. I've always wanted to know what they were saying and what it meant. What about the shadows at the end? Were they shadows of the saints?
@@autobotrock4789 in my opinion, those are judges, a projection of his coscience and the inner conflict in him.
Normally,people would pick petals out of flowers humming "she loves me,she loves me not".But this guy goes crazy
Lust is a dark and torturous sin that can only be conquered with prayer
@@alecjones4676 he ignored the graces that God gave him, like when Esmeralda escaped and the guard told him she was gone, that was an answer to his prayer (and frolos prayer was a pretty bad prayer as far as prayers go because it was littered with selfishness and pride), in the end God will honor our free will.
Yeah...love or I should say lust makes people me on crazy things. 😄
It ain’t Disney without breaking into song
I mean my go to response to sexual and romantic attraction now is to beg God to remove these wants from me, as I'm clearly not going to use them and they're only hurting me.
Maybe it's not the most healthy but at least I'm not Frollo, I'm letting go at every opportunity while he can't.
2:59 “God have mercy on her, God have mercy on me.” is so powerful to me, the scenery and everything.
“God have mercy on her”
asking for mercy on esmeralda for what he is about to do
“God have mercy on me”
asking for mercy for what he is going to do to her because he knows deep down its malicious and evil
Or maybe cause he thinks like she is sinning and dragging him to there too.
can u pls capitalize the G out of respect :)

*W H E E Z E*
Bruh this guy is actually terrifying he isn't just some villian trying to act evil or look baddass he is legit terrifying he is a person thinking hes above sin he blames the "witch" its just horrifying
Frollo believes he's the rightiues god man
get a grip
@@mrabcd3819 which is funny because he blames God too and then casts the personification of his conscience into the fireplace as it tells him it's all his fault in latin
The terrifying part is that, he is a man with a complex that is basically unshakable; he thinks he is the righteous man, but yet, almost burns an entire mill down filled with innocent children and women simply due to a rumor he heard. He thinks he’s justly and reasonable, yet, he buries half of Paris in smoldering lava.
But yeah, that’s just my thoughts on this situation
It’s scary because people like this actually exist
*"it's not my fault if in God's plan, he made the Devil so much stronger than a man"*
what an awesome line
And by doing so men are to lean on God who will deliver them. Had Frollo the Holy Spirit dwelling in him, he may have been delivered from his villainy
It's true. That line is...fire.
I'll see myself out.
BS excuse though 😂 but brilliant line
@@mary-catherinecroshaw6369 Yeah the whole point of Christianity is that humanity has been given the strength to resist Satan. Frollo says he's purer and more righteous than everyone else while simultaneously saying the devil is too strong. Not very faithful of him lol
@@LordVader1094 Honestly i think humans are more dictated by memes than religion. But for people who find salvation, obviously some paths are dictated by what one goes with
Other commenters have pointed out how heavenly the mysterious guard appears, but I also love how devilish Frollo becomes after he turns his back on the guard/God.
Look at his body language when he sings the word "Hellfire" at 1:26 compared to 2:39. The first time he's terrified of it and trying to protect himself from it, the second time he looks more like he's invoking it. 2:39-2:46 visualises Frollo's hypocrisy perfectly; he calls Quasimodo a monster for his hunched back, and he calls Esmerelda a witch, but what do we see Frollo doing there? Invoking the fires of hell and darkness while dressed in a long black cloak like a witch performing a Black Mass, and he's also hunched over just as badly as Quasi but with more jagged and harsh angles.
I also note that after he damns himself he doesn't get any more sexy images of Esmerelda (and in fact destroys the one piece of clothing he has of hers,) presumably because the devil no longer has any need to tempt him. Frollo's effectively sold his soul already (and since he was too arrogant and self-righteous to realise what he was doing he didn't even strike a decent Faustian bargain and get some short-term benefits), and is irrevocably on his way to hell, so all he's getting is a mouthful of ash while his new master laughs at him.
You're comment is really focused and insightful. I like how you said he sold his soul to the devil and his eating the ash that his new master rewards him with for his allegiance, such a cool imagery. Noice! (●´ω`●)
I don't like analysing this movie from a strictly religious standpoint, but your comment is amazing. I 100% agree on you for the first part, while I give another interpretation for things treated in the last part of your comment. I don't think the devil or God were ever actually involved in the story... Frollo did all of this HIMSELF, at least in my opinion. Really cool comment tho, I enjoyed reading it a lot especially because It gave me a very different point of view/lecture of his arc, a more religious one I didn't ever consider since I'm not religious. Props!
My personal interpretation of this is a little different - the Devil bailed out when he realised just what Frollo wanted and even asked God permission to enter a holy place and take Frollo's soul.
Let that sink in - _the Devil_ bailed out because he found Frollo too horrifying to deal with. Frollo is _that_ bad.
Those were the days... When souls just jumped in the pits of Hell like mindless chinchillas!😈😈😈
@@nathanjackson9112What?! Nothing is too horrible for that twisted bastard! Lol
Can we all just give props to frollo's voice actor? Because not only is his singing gorgeous, but you can here all of the emotion in every line!
That's Tony Jay for you.
@Ethan Quirk Fun fact: He actually couldn't sing that last high note at first (She will Burn!) So he asked them to lower it. They refused, but offered to get someone else to sing it for him. So *_he_* refused, and took classes to train himself to sing it. And it worked. Just to show you how dedicated this man was to his work.
@@ethanquirk9652 I feel that most British actors, at least the ones I know of, can sing really, really good. I just wish we got more of Tony singing.

@@mako3271 you’re not alone my child
His prayer was literally answered. Esmeralda had escaped, she was out of his hair, he had a perfect opportunity to let the problem be solved without having to even do anything, yet he chooses not to and stubbornly insists on going after her. I like this scene because it shows off an aspect of Frollo's character that I don't think was ever touched in the film before this, he knows what he is doing is a sin, and admits it, but he still chooses it when given the choice.
Best part is that guard at the end as many theorized is an angel because if I remember correctly no other guard noticed the fact that she escaped yet this singular unknown guard appears from nowhere covered in a pale glowing light and tells him she escaped like he already knew this
@@theenderdestruction2362 it’s the same guard who got half his mustache chopped off by Phoebus earlier in the movie. If you look closely enough it’s him but here he is blocked out by this divine light. Also as you have stated this was god knocking at frollo’s door giving him a way out. Frollo chooses to still give into his obsession with Esmeralda and seals his fate. The line “ God have mercy on me “ is so ironic because god have him mercy and he ignored it and of course at the end frollo “ let’s Esmeralda’s fire seer his flesh and bone “
@@thebearproject8573 hmm good eye
I find this is also the case in my own life, but usually only in hindsight. Like "I should have listened to that person/sign/message."
He's not choosing to be stubborn he literally cant control himself at that point ya'll are so ignorant about mentally struggling people
The way he says "dark fire" is flawless

@@juice2307 exactly, he’s only powerful if you fall for his trap. People keep being afraid because they think of how scary the devil is but in reality all you have to do is ignore the people who make jokes that are disrespectful to Christianity and ask for gods help
“Of my virtue, I am justly proud.”
Yep, totally humble guy.
It really shows just how flawed he is from the very beginning. Especially if you're a devout Christian like he claims to be. He's holding up his own "virtue" while he's appealing to Maria (and God ultimately) which means he misses the entire point.
Modesty level: Frollo.
Honestly it's not that line that shows how little humility Frollo has. It's the immediate line after.
"You know I'm so much purer then. The common, vulgar, weak, licenstious crowd."
It's a common struggle for all Christians in some capacity. We are taught to be humble, and we practice or faith through good works, but then we recognize those good works and our sense of accomplishment or the joy of helping people can easily turn into pride. "It was _me_ who did those good things. They are _my_ accomplishments." All of our worldly accomplishments are meant to glorify God, but if we are not careful it can turn into glorifying ourselves. As it says in Proverbs 16:18, "Pride comes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall." And in this instance, Frollo fell. Literally, right at the end he falls onto the floor.
@@thecatladytm7172 it really isn't a common struggle for all Christians. As a former Christian, I did the right thing by people because it was the right thing to do. Not to "glorify" anything. As did many others. Seems like the bus stop of "hey, this good deed just has to mean something!" Might be the wrong stop to get off on, not being proud of yourself for accomplishing something.
I'm Catholic and I love how the song starts with the Archdeacon and other priests chanting the Confiteor and leads into Frollo's prayer to the Virgin Mary and how the chorus continues the Confiteor in the background of the song. It's just so perfect. This whole movie is a masterpiece in it's story telling and characters.
Fun fact. In this moment (2:21) God answers to Frollo’s “prayers”: getting rid of the gipsy without any bloodshed. Note that the guard’s face is covered by a dazzling light. But Frollo decided to stay in his hate and toxic love, and being condemned to hell
P.S. I’m orthodox 😊
Just another bit of symbolism to point out: notice how he ignores the giant cross on the wall and instead prays into the fire beneath it.

"Of my virtue I am justly proud!"
Frollo's deadliest sin. Pride.
Frollo is one of the best Disney villains, he isnt some stereotypical Saturday morning cartoon villain, he's terrifyingly human and represents so much more than just the concept of "Evil"
The man asked for God's advice, a door that opened a light appeared and he remained near the hellfire
He's like the concept of Lust
No no no no he isn't "lust" or "evil" or any such nonsense. He says it himself. "You made the devil so much stronger than a man."
Frollo is just a man. A very, very very conflicted man and one with both real power and powerfully righteous intentions whom simply doesn't understand the feelings he's drowning in not how to vent them in a healthy manner.
Frollo is more of a man, conflicted, than most of us will ever be and his duality of passion for his faith and the love of a woman whom he theoretically has power over makes him one of the most sympathetic villains of all time.
Frollo is a masterpiece of writing. Hands down. He isn't evil.
He's just a man. A painful, remarkably painful man.
He and the black children's horned king are more realistic villains because they dont have time for wisecracking. They're just evil and that's it
@@virtueofabsolution this man did not love God, he loved the feeling of being better than others. He saw himself as pure, and everything else as sinful, and that is where his internal conflict comes from. I agree with you that he is just a man, and a complex character at that, but I do not find him sympathetic in the slightest. Instead I take this as a warning: never let a person of pride be a person of power, because they will put their pride and their desire over everything else.

In the Movie he actually burns almost everything BUT the Notre Dame. In reality Notre Daqme burned and everyone else was OK .
Looked down to read the words when I realized Frollo was about to say them
This is like Donald trump vs Mexico
@Don_StefanoValentini it was purely by chance
Disney never even came close to writing a villain this good ever again. Hades, Scar, Ursala, they're all great but Frollo is scary in a way most villains just aren't. He's not a lion, a witch or a demon fr hell. He's just a man, and the fact that his dark drive leads to so much death and destruction is bone chilling.
Musical frollo is still better
Hades is the funniest villain, but Frollo is definitely the most terrifying. That makes him the best villain.
Also because a cruel and corrupt official using their power to get what they want, no matter who it hurts, is a very realistic villain. Heck the whole Me Too movement was all about exposing people just like this.
Yes, the fact that there are really people like him in this world makes it much more disturbing.
I just wanna say this because Hades is kinda in the topic but why in the movie did they make him a villain? Sure he’s the god/ruler of the underworld but he’s one of the most calm guys in Greek mythology, I like to think that they gave Hera’s role (Heracles’s “mother”) to hades but they could’ve just made her the villain instead because in mythology she tried multiple times to kill Heracles until it drove him insane. And that’s not even scratching the surface of every mythological inaccuracies in the movie Hercules, cause first off since it’s *Greek* mythology it’s *Hera-cles* not *Her-cules* cause Hercules is his Roman name
Somebody pointed this out: Frollo did not look at the cross over the fireplace, he looked into fire. Frollo was literally begging for answers that were from Hell.
He is terrified of hellfire. The belief that you can be tortured for eternity will drive you insane.

I think if you say "don't do this or you go to hell" that's really messed up. But that's not the only way you can talk about it. And it's not the way I heard it. However understanding hell at a young age can help you to feel that your bad and evil actions harm others and should be fought against. But as God said "be not afraid" it's wrong when people try to promote religion by fear, especially in regards to hell.

I like the way his voice cracks a bit on "God have mercy on me". Seems like he knows which one of them God's gonna be more disappointed in.

Deep down, we all do.
Deep down means little though on the surface.
the only times he wasn't so focused on "how righteous of a person and how nice he is" was when he said that and when he didn't drown Quasimodo.
@@darthmaul8278 still, he’s definitely a monster.
The voice talent in this productionis second to none. They nailed EVERYTHING
Funny thing is that during this very song...Frollo got exactly what he wanted without really doing anything. The guard enters and informs him that Esmeralda has escaped.
She's gone. She's no longer his problem. He had the perfect opportunity to let go of his desires for her and move on without tainting his core beliefs. His prayer was ANSWERED.
But he chose NOT to do that.
Instead he pursued her and tried to destroy her culture and kill her. He was so adamant that this "problem" had to be solved by his own hand to prove his devotion to the church that it ended up destroying him instead.
What twisted irony.
It’s crazy how I never looked at the guard being an angel or god intervening until now. I always took it as the guard sounding tired from looking for Esmeralda. Now looking at it you’re right frollo literally had god answer his prayer and he pretty much sealed his fate by dismissing god’s help. So many times in this movie did they foreshadow frollo paying the ultimate price. When the fire wrapped around him after blaming god for making the devil stronger then a man, the other line “ don’t let her fire seer my flesh and bone” when his carriage was destroyed and it showed him angry with a blazing inferno behind him and the beginning about the gargoyles “ can stone talk “
Plus, look at the color contrasts whenever frollo or the guard are talking.
The guard being behind the moonlight (i assume) making it look like an angel just knocked on his door to deliver god's message
While Frollo's behind the "hellfire", symbolizing how his mind has already fallen on temptation

BRUH IM CACKLING
I just now noticed: when the guard informs Frollo of Esmeralda’s escape, his face is barely visible and we instead see the bright light behind him. This was basically Frollo’s chance of letting go of his obsession and lust for Esmeralda and redeem himself. Instead, he rejected it and sealed his fate from there.
Smh dude really brought this on himself
That's interesting and all, but I can't get over your profile pic saying BJ.

I have always thought that when the guard enters, it is actually Maria offering him a chance at redemption. Frollo is already in hell, his soul is damned. Much of the song is all red but when the door opens everything turns blue. The flames stay in place, the chimney that would be the hell. Maria intercedes for Frollo and makes the gypsy escape to give him one last chance. Frollo rejects the help of Maria, who was asking moments before and stays next to the flames, finishing surrendering to hell. As soon as the door closes, that divine blue disappears and the infernal red takes over the whole room.

Nobody can ignore the fluidness and smoothness of old disney's animation.
Ok, but are we just going to ignore that instead of Scar, Frollo is probably the best Disney villain ever. A living monster, an actual person. Not a talking lion, but a human being. That's as disturbing as it gets. Frollo was a hypocritical man, holier than thou, cruel, racist, misogynistic, his own internal sense of damnation and perdition.

More often than not, they get turned on by a child in a diaper. I wish I were kidding. They,a five month old, baby-whatever, seduced them.
Whenever you shit on lawyers remember they have to hear this guy out irregardless of their own personal feelings. They can drop the case if they work at their own firm but pro bono work has to be available to these people, per due process. A judge can, even after reviewing the case, appoint a lawyer because again, they (the offender and defendant in this case) have to have legal representation if they request it.

You may not rest now, there's a old man singing a self opera nearby

Lmfao!!
This is so effective because Frolo can’t understand the depths of his evil. This is so shocking how this ended up in an animated film for children. It’s almost like they knew we would revisit this as adults and appreciate it for how raw and powerful this song would be. Shout out to the late Tony Jay for an amazing performance.
When he says “God have mercy on me.” It’s shows at least apart of him knows that what he wants to do is wrong. Yet that moment of self awareness is gone in an instant as his lust for Esmeralda and his warped sense of purity. But in away that makes what Frollo is doing worse because he knows he’s putting his own wants before God while pretending to still be a righteous. This is really deep and will go over most kids heads.
This whole movie gave me major anxiety as a kid and was deeply uncomfortable to watch but now I am in awe that they made movies this good for kids once upon a time compared to the stuff they make now. I feel grateful I got to grow up during Disney's Renaissance period before they went nuts lol.
Disney made family movies. it wasnt intended for you to rewatch 20y later but for everyone to enjoy, adult and child alike
@@dirtnbloodnotherkids Same.
Yep. As much as I loved this movie and this song as a kid, I love it so much more as an adult
Love this movie, because it proves that just because someone believes in God doesn't make them a good person. But the same time it doesn't demonise the church. It recognises that good people also follow god and people need it in their lives for a sense of direction and meaning. It gives a very balanced view of religion to children.
Was just thinking a similar thing, and this movie makes a proper villain who is Christian rather than going the easy route and making them completely immoral and remorseless. With his second line of "Of my virtue I am justly proud", we already have a separation from this man and the values of Christianity, and coupling that with what the choir is singing in latin, viewers understand that he is wrong, but not because of Christianity.
God Is just as bad as Satan.
I agree. There is an old saying that satan can quote scripture for his own purposes. Before he meets his own demise, Frollo truly believed that killing Esmerelda was somehow doing Gods work
It's all part of the Gothic tradition, which is the literary period the book was written in. Apart from all the usual imagery like castles and spooky cellars, and traditional plot elements like shenanigans with family ties, the other very important element was a critique to the Church, but never, NEVER, a critique to religion. You could mock the clergy all you wanted, but making fun of religion itself was the biggest no-no, for good reason.
In the novel, he was actually the archdeacon of the church. So when Disney had to adapt it for the movie, the filmmakers decided to have him be a judge as having him as a archdeacon who does all these horrible things would demonize the church.
Please don't let current day Disney touch this one...
Na they don’t have the balls anymore to do a film that so openly critics religion.
But yes they would definitely ruin it like the reset if attempted
@Camila Rosa Pérez Montes If I was going to choose someone to play Frollo in the live action...(well, my first choice would be Tony Jay (who was Frollo’s voice actor), but he died in 2006), but I would probably have to go with the guy who played the 12th Dr Who (can’t remember his name), he looked and sounded a lot like Frollo.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who’ll walk out of the cinema if they ruin Hellfire😂.
Please
@Camila Rosa Pérez Montes a lot of the critics (and fans I'm guessing) agreed that had they cut the comic relief gargoyles then it would probably have a higher level of critical acclaim.
I understand why Disney added them, but imagine if they'd of had the balls to have a straight forward animated musical drama.
But they do get credit for making a "kids" movie that touches on many adult themes.
I hope they don't. I don't want them to ruin this. Hopefully that whole fiasco with Mulan made them learn their lesson.
this is the best Disney film and Frollo is the scariest Disney villain because he shows you that real monsters live not in the shadows, but in the hearts of ignorant humans.
Beautifully put
I agree. You have your Ursula's and Jafar's, but none are a scary as Frollo. He is really the only Disney villain who could actually be real. Corrupt officials is a problem, and it is shown completely in frollo.
@@animationandhistory7793 ironic cause we do have corrupt officials in our government so it’s all full circle
Bingo
And here is the comment of someone who thinks those that disagree with them are monsters. We musnt forget that no one is "correct" in the way they lead their life. You are no better than Frollo if that is the case.
Something I noticed about this song that separates it from other villain songs besides the obvious, is that unlike the majority, Frollo is alone. When it comes to songs like Gaston, Poor Unfortunate Souls, or Be Prepared, they're always singing to someone(well, more like at someone) in particular. With Ursula it's Ariel, with Scar it's the Hyenas, and with Gaston it's to everyone in the pub. But not with Hellfire.
Frollo and the illusions of his unsettled mind are the only ones in that room. Because unlike other villain musical numbers, this is a private moment of deep internal struggle and conflict within the main villain. This is not something he wants to be seen. It is something he feels great discomfort and shame about, which is far different from the usual disney villain belting out about how much fun they're having being evil.
This was a rare look into the mind of the monster of this film, a deeper look into how his twisted mind worked when he was alone, and what we got was one of the darkest yet greatest disney villain songs of all time.
100% agree. Frollo's my favourote Disney villain, and I have yet to even watch this movie.
I KNOW RIGHT
I love him so much.
It's very faithful to the book
Correct, he is alone, very insightful. But he is singing to and at someone…
God.
We are never really alone. But that doesn’t change the substance of your comment, again, insightful.
@@youhaveinfinitevalue5755EXACTLY GOD IS ONE
What I love about these lyrics is how it brilliantly depicts the “virtue” of Frollo through a narrative of sins that are justified to him. Within the first line he says “Of my VIRTUE I am justly PROUD” (Pride being the worst of the seven sins). The very next thing he says “You know I’m so much purer than the common, vulgar, weak, licentious crowd” which is a brilliant description of his VANITY and ENVY; two other sins. Then he has a few lines about his desire for Esmeralda, a clear-cut depiction of the sin of LUST and to a degree also GREED. Then after he feels judged by the choirs, he projects his sinful guilt onto Esmeralda, begging for her to be condemned to the fires of hell where the flames may… Christ… SEER HER FLESH AND BONES?… If that’s not an admittance of the sin of WRATH, I don’t know what is. Brilliant lyricism!
Also to continue about his Wrath; “I’ll find her if I have to burn down all of Paris.” Again, he’s pronouncing all his sins and flaws but in a way where they sound justified to him to a point where he’s the virtuous saintly good guy who just struggles to claw free from the grasp of the devil. Scary to think that many “virtuous” people throughout history probably did and still do justify their obviously sinful nature in this way, but this complex flaw of human nature is captured incredibly in this song.
You're brilliant love the way you explained it 😊
He was saying “ protect me Maria, don’t let this siren cast her spell, don’t let her fire seer my flesh and bone “ he kinda foreshadowed what was going to happen to him for ignoring the sign god sent. To answer your other question about him wanting Esmeralda to go to hell is pretty much how you said it. He either wanted her to be his and his alone or she can go to hell for being a “witch” as he called her.
Please shut up
As a child I never realised Frollo's intentions. I always thought that he hates her for being a gypsy. Now I am 29 years old and I am BEYOND shocked over the fact that he blames Esmeralda herself for his feelings for her, this is victim blaming on a whole other level. Its unbelivable dark and easily makes him the baddest villain in Disney history.
I watched this movie when I was ten
Lol that’s so disgusting
Even the storybook adaptation just say Frollo just wanted to start a war and rid of the gypsies. Adolf frollo
In terms of books, better read the victor hugo version instead though.
@Gamias Tou UA-cam Zootopia was also amazing
"When I was a lad I didn't know what Frollo was singing. And now that I'm grown I'm like bwaaaaaaah....Frollo is a perv!"
Just gotta say, I love how they played with the camera angles to let us know when Frollo felt like he was in a position of power, and when he felt out of control. The high and low angles are amazing. Very inspirational for me as someone creating a storyboard based on this song.
I know, It's really fantastic! Thank you for pointing that out. This song and its accompanying video are truly amazing. Showed it to my girlfriend and she just doesn't get it. lol..
Yep. Additionally, the vocals for this song seem reaaaaalllly hard to get just right. The inflections on the word 'witch' are twisted every time it is mentioned, even if the rest of the sentence isn't in that tone. That's just one small example. I've listened to several covers of this and none of them really come even close to capturing the nuances of it.
Yeah, right? The symbolism is awesome!
Also the moments when the walls recede and return to reality, while this man is madly raving to himself in a room.
U in film class or something?
If you compare this song with any other Disney villain song It really stands out with it's uniqueness.
Where other villains are singing jolly songs about how evil they are and revelling in it, Frollo actually fears his evil tendencies and is tortured by his increased insanity.
Frollo is a villain obsessed with his religion and his warped view of justice.
He is also self depraved, (rejecting basic human needs) which results in emotionally unstable behaviour when confronted directly with it. (sexual attraction)

It's that realization, that horror of knowing what has stricken him. Knowing that he cannot save her or himself from what has consumed him whole.

He blamed God and accuses God of making the Devil stronger than Man. In fact, the Devil is nowhere near as strong as Man. The Man has much more favor and Grace from God than Satan. This in itself makes Man a lot stronger than Satan and Frollo's reminder of this was his guard entering to remind him of his freedom and power (granted throughout a lifetime).

Most adult fare from Disney. I've been told "Black Cauldron" is more intense and darker, but when it comes to adult themes of lust, moral corruption, abuse of power, torture, mental torture, abuse, self-righteousness manipulation, and love, this classic hits all the right notes.
Notice how "in the moment" Frollo is, when the guard bangs on the door, him being startled and out of breath. That's the kind of knock that makes you jump out of your skin, ESPECIALLY when you're up to no good.

@@MetalHeadManic612
People (especially Catholics) either dismiss, or are ignorant of, the dark history of the Roman Catholic Church. We've seen just a sliver of their wickedness, as pedophilic priests, or homosexual priests. The instruments of torture they invented, to crush true believers into submission, because they denied the "Mother Church"s" authority, which didn't work, burned them at the stake, for not recanting! This went on for well over 1000 years. The Church brought in the dark ages, chiefly, by refusing the laity from reading the bible. Tyndall was condemned, as a heretic, by the Church, for translating the bible into English, and was strangled to death, then burned at the stake. This sordid history marks them as the "Church of Satan."
In a sense, that was god knocking on that door. That was an opportunity to be like whoa hey maybe that's crazy, and Frollo callously tells that opportunity to get the fuck out.
i just want to comment about the amazing and talented hand-drawn animation
that disney have long since forgotten.
And this movie was rated G at its time. I miss movies that had balls to do stuff like this regardless of rating.
Well that's because we live in an over protected generation now. Back in those days it was considered a good and healthy thing to sometimes expose adult themes to kids so they can learn and develop morally and psychology faster. Now every adult theme is seen as "to disturbing" for children so it must be censored.
@@mikipav1064 Lmao that just isn't true. A lot of people were mad as hell when this came out and their children saw it. If you go back just a few years, and even sometimes today, people would lose their absolute shit if there was even a tiny bit of homoerotic undertones, much less direct references to lust and blasphemy. People were absolutely not more tolerant or "thick skinned" before. Disney might have been willing to take more risks, but audiences didn't react any differently. I'd wager this song would actually be more positively received if it came out today, but that's just speculation.

Another interesting piece of symbolism:
The Latin chant in the beginning (which also continues to interject in between Frollo's lines) is known as the 'Confiteor', which is a prayer recited at the beginning of the Catholic Mass to admit one's guilt and sinfulness.
Pretty clever that they specifically chose this chant to compliment Hellfire, which is all about Frollo denying responsibility for his own lust and deciding to pin the blame on Esmerelda.
It gets even better when the red-hooded figures (probably representing whatever good is left inside of Frollo) begin materialising:
"It's not my fault!"
_"Mea culpa!"_ (through my fault)
i always always assumed the hooded figures were saying something to that effect thanks for giving be the translation.

@Ai7A no Catholic worships Mary or any saint. The reason they are mentioned in the chant is they are our brothers and sisters in God and we confess to them as well as our brothers and sisters on Earth that we have sinned against God and ask for prayers.
@Ai7A veneration isn't worship and yes we should worship Christ he is God in the flesh and deserves all the worship along with the father and holy spirit
@Ai7A sir God also says we are to be tolerant of others and respect thoses who trespass against us.
It’s a really scary thought that a lot of young men in my generation are becoming exactly like this
I can really see alpha men and incels glorifying this man and calling his motivation "justified"
"Hippity hoppity Esmeralda is now my property"
Was Frollo out of his mind or what. As a result of not being able to have a woman he wanted the man was actually willing to burn a whole city full of innocent people. Frollo did not care less.

Haha! Exactly.
I laughed way too hard there
😂😂😂😂😂
XDDDDD OMG
At 2:23 the guard enters. He is framed by a soft blue light, and we pointedly never see his face. He says that Esmerelda is gone, and that Frollo has lost her. I like to think that he's actually an angel, and that God is giving Frollo one last chance to let go of his obsession and find peace. But Frollo sends him away, rejecting redemption in favour of pursuing his lust to whatever end.

Josh Cain dude I want to be your friend. I love the way your mind works
This. I didnt think about the angel simbolysm but it is very obvious even without it he is given the choice to persuit or forget and he himself decides to follow through with catching her and proceeds to blame her.
THIS!!!
You sir, are a true genius.
"God have mercy on me" is the single best line from the song, it establishes that Frollo isn't just boner crazy, but is aware he is being a tool, but doesn't want to admit it.
Personally, I see this as the one time we see Judge Frollo in a moment of vulnerability and despair. The Disney version of Frollo has always wanted to hail himself as a sinless man, who has the right to cast the first stone and deserves his own place in heaven above the rest of humanity. He used his sense of self-righteousness to justify all the horrible things he did in the past and his cruel treatment of the outcasts of society. Then, when he becomes infatuated with Esmeralda, he is faced with a sin that he never confronted before and now realizes that he can no longer deny how wicked he is in the eyes of God. He cannot even live up to his own twisted principles, and the fact that Esmeralda was a Gypsy also turns his xenophobic views on its head.
His inner turmoil revolves around him trying to delude himself into thinking he is not the one at fault and that he still has no weaknesses, that would take away his "right" to condemn others. This leads to his insanity and obsession will either possessing or killing Esmeralda. It becomes like many other stories that illustrate how pride corrupts.
When he whimpers, "God have mercy on me," it is like his one moment of realization that he has no choice left but to turn back from his evil ways and plead to God for forgiveness. His appearance and tone of voice seem to show a great deal of sadness. Yet he is ashamed of his sins for all the wrong reasons. He does not feel sad because he decided to become a more loving person, and was genuinely sorry for all the people he hurt and the fact he was fantasizing about raping a woman. He only felt shame because he saw that his dream of being idolized in heaven was shattered. He ultimately decides that he would rather be in hell, than go to heaven with the knowledge he had to accept a pardon. So that's why after saying that line, he immediately turns back to evil and goes on his suicide course, filling himself with a false hope that he will still turn out to be justified in the end, either because he was actually "entitled" to Esmeralda all along or that it was Esmeralda's fault and destroying the "witch" will allow him to finally "purge" himself.
He's being a tool cause his tool just got stiff
yup
This is so well put! I personally like Frollo's characterization in the Disney adaption and I think this character song really brings out his complexity in a simple way. Probably looking deep into it but thanks for commenting such an insightful thing!
+Mark Cobuzzi He even went so far as to blame God for his own faults, when he says that "He made the Devil so much stronger than a man!"
1:54 this harmonic key change is truly chilling, resembling the lyrics as he hopes Maria will protect him from this pain and conflict
Damn Disney tried to warn us more than 20 years ago and we were all sleeping on it.
This is some conspiracy crap
Not Disney, Victor Hugo ! He wrote the original story/book :').
We didn't take it seriously, we need to start on that! First on our list is Illuminati
Top ten channels gonna jump on this like tOp TeN tImEs DiSnEy PrEdIcTeD tHe FuTuRe
The inspiration for the corrupt Disney programs sadly comes from “Escape From Tomorrow”. Now that’s a movie I say should be destroyed, in every sense of the word
I love how in 1:43 the choir is singing "my fault, my fault, my greatest fault" trying to get to him confess while he denies his sin
I think the red figures represent what he knows deep down. He is guilty and mired in sin, and this song is him lying to himself that he is a righteous person and is being tempted by something beyond his control. It's nice to have a villain that isn't one-dimensional, especially in a movie for younger audiences
They are saying “mea culpa” which translates into what you said
@ I believe that's the old confiteor if I'm not wrong
@@Omar-uk1dq Yes, it is the traditional version of the Confiteor.
2:22
*"Minister Frollo, the gypsy has-"*
*"OH MY GOSH HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU TO KNOCK WHEN I'M SINGING HOLY CRAP"*
ah kkaebsong he did knock...like 5 times.
Frollo's inferno and havoc of Paris could maybe have been avoided had he had a wank.
Isn't that forbidden in Catholicism? What with New Testament Jesus saying, to even think of adultery with another woman is no different from already having done so.
Well, those aren't exact words. Exact words state that one who looks upon another with lust has already committed adultery in their heart. Although that was part of the Sermon on the Mount, which contained a fair amount of figurative language and hyperbole in it, quite possibly as a rebuke of people specifically attempting to skirt the edge of sin. Unfortunately, there's almost two millennia of added mess to sort out. For example biblical text implies polygamy to be acceptable. Perhaps not ideal, but acceptable. However, try telling that to the modern Catholic church at risk to your time.

This is the best song Disney ever made. It's genius. It's harmonic, and it's definitely not for children.
