    I love the choice of having Quasimodo sing the last line of the song without us knowing who the character is yet, and then his mother coming and putting the deformity on him. I can't quite articulate the effect it has, but it was powerful and whoever came up with the idea is brilliant.

      @MiyuTheFallenAngel 4 роки тому +23

      It was considered a flop.
      The movie tried to hard to be adult but was also scared to be adult. They knew their fan base was children. So they made a sexualized Romani after having just gotten ally of backlash on pocohontas design. Then they couldn’t commit to where they wanted to land on the spectrum. Causing confusing happy moments in the middle of very depressing ones. It give the feeling of emotional whiplash
      One second there is a siege being waged in the church and then goofy scream.
      The creators hated the fat gargoyle but had to put him in as comedic relief for the kids. Overall it was considered a flop. But that being said I still loved it and to this day love the dark story of hunchback. I prefer the play over the Disney version now.

      Not really. From what I saw, and being a Disney movie, it was considered very dark and different by many Disney fans. And Disney was never really known to be this dark or serious at least with their 2D film stuff (even darker and more serious than 'The Black Cauldron'). But instead, much more fun, happy and fairy tale-ish, particularly back in those older decades.

    I love how in this version it kind of makes you think who’s fault it is for the tragedy to have unfolded the way it did. Is it the church who took these poor boys in and tried to brainwash them and would throw them out into the cold world if they disobeyed the Holy laws. Was Jehan’s fault for being ungrateful to the Church who offered them a home and love and yet disrespected their love and their faith by being a no good sinner who abused his brother’s status to get what he wanted. Was it Claude’s fault for taking the faith so seriously that he saw everything outside the church as sinful and tried to force his brother to be a prisoner of Notre Dame like he would later do to Quasi, judged Jehan’s girlfriend just because she was a gypsy, and then called him a sinner to the church leaders and caused Jehan to be thrown out. Or was it a combination of the sins of the Church, Claude, and Jehan that brought about this tragedy

      I miss Clopin as well. But what we are seeing here, in this version makes the reasons for Follo's actions make more sense, after all Clopin as the teller of the tale was something that only entered the public consciousness with the release of the animated version. The one place where I disagree with you is if anything, in my opinion, it ADDS to the power of the tale, not takes away from it.

    • @DorkSausage
      @DorkSausage 4 роки тому +32

      Micheal Feeney it’s not a character thing I’m concerned about. I’m talking in terms of tempo and power of musical sound. This production in particular took the tempo of the whole show incredibly slowly and it leaves the audience sitting in the music going “Ok, this is going to speed up a bit right? No? Same pace the whole time? Ok...” Also, it does take away the power from the music because with the combination of the slow tempo and the lack of distinction in the lines sung by an ensemble, over an individual or duo who can make character decisions with the line rather than sing a general sound that just blends with a group. Part of the power of this opening prologue is is saves the entire congregation and choir singing big and together for specific sections of the song. Giving the solos to everybody just muddies that intention and brings down those otherwise powerful moments.

    GREAT performances! The Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of my favorite movies growing up. I was still young to where I didn't understand the material, but thought the name Quasimodo was unique and funny.
    After rediscovering it many years later as an adult, it hits differently. The question of man vs. monster, but also how appearances can be deceiving.
    Also between this performance and a recent rewatch, I never stopped to notice how the words "Kyrie Eleison" are repeated throughout.

    Many productions I have seen (mostly slime tutorials or occasional legitimate uploads such as this) suffer severely and lack true scale, all because their instrumentation was weak, and more importantly, their chorus was even weaker. Because there really is no singular narrator. It is a true Greek Chorus that guides us. And when you've a tale of epic proportions such as this, with the very primary setting being the grand cathedral of Notre Dame itself, your Greek Chorus must be as epic.
    And here, the instrumentation, the chorus, the balance, your troupe has found that perfect balance and scale. The main cast is excellent and each actor holds their own quite well, but the chorus and orchestra are working the hardest, and they really make this production possibly *the best* production of Hunchback that I have seen to date. Though, it's no surprise, as my two favourite productions of Jekyll & Hyde were both done by your troupe.
    How I long for the day I can finally witness your grande theatre experiences in person. Thank you! :)

      @barbaro267 Frollo's brother (Jehan) joined the gypsies and they attacked the cathedral to save Esmeralda. They climbed up with ladders and Jehan was the first one to climb up and hid behind a statue. Then Quasimodo came along and because he was deaf he didn't know the gypsies actually wanted to help Esmeralda so threw the ladder away from the wall so no one could come up. Then Jehan from behind the statue attacked him. Then Quasimodo broke his weapon, grabbed Jehan and stripped him from his armor. Jehan then started laughing into Quasimodo's face and singing some song to mock him, then Quasimodo grabbed him by the legs and bashed his body against the wall. Jehan's brain could be seen, his spine and hip were broken. Quasimodozhen dropped his body off but it got caught in the wall. So it was just hanging there. That's the state Frollo saw his brother in.

      In the original book, Frollo was 20 years older than his brother Jehan, and he had been the one raising him, and a few years after having taken in Jehan, he had found Quasimodo (who i think was deposed at the Church) and raised him as his own son, this Frollo loved Quasimodo like his own son.
      The Disney Frollo was a judge who was blackmailed in taking in Quasimodo, but he had made sure to manipulate him, and he never cared.
      This Frollo seem to care about Quasimodo as much as the first one, but was far less selfless, he had adopted him because he was the son of his dear brother, while the first one had done it because in his opinion, it would had been cruel not to do so.

He murdered Quasimodo's mother in cold blood on the steps of the church which was a huge no no and was about to put an innocent child's blood on his hands. Being charged with raising Quasi was a chance to redeem himself. The Archdeacon just made sure to put the fear of God in him.

    The worst part about Frollo is how realistic he is. There have been so many people like him throughout history, it's sad. He even says that we're all born into sin, but he's still so racist and doesn't realize how hypocritical that is. If we're all born into sin, then we're all equally in need of God's grace and shouldn't look down on others who haven't accepted that grace. We should care for them and show them love even if we don't accept what they do; love the sinner, hate the sin as they say. People like Frollo undoubtedly preach love and forgiveness, but don't act it out. "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us," is one of the most powerful verses I know. He didn't wait for us to give up sin or do penance or be baptized, Christ died for us while we were at our worst and accepts us at our worst. Then He teaches us to live godly lives. It's about what God has done, not what we do. Sorry if I got a little preachy, but there are so many people who don't practice what they preach or completely misinterpret the Bible and it's frustrating.

      Morning in Paris the city awakes
      To the Bells of Notre Dame
      The fisherman fishes, the baker man bakes
      To the Bells of Notre Dame
      To the big bells as loud as the thunder
      To the little bells soft as a Psalm
      And some say the soul of the city's the toll
      Of the bells, the Bells of Notre Dame
      Long years ago did this story begin
      In this place called Notre Dame
      Two orphan brothers were both taken in
      By the grace of Notre Dame
      Claude the older who cared for his brother
      Young Jehan full of beauty and charm
      And they lived and they grew
      And awoke to the music of bells
      The Bells of Notre Dame
      FROLLO:
      Oh dear brother ‘neath these arches
      And this sacred dome
      We are blessed to find our sanctuary
      And our home
      CONGREGATION:
      Righteous Claude Frollo was ever more drawn
      Like a son to Notre Dame
      Not like his profligate brother Jehan
      Who'd have none of Notre Dame
      Though as brothers they loved one another
      Frollo watched in despair and alarm
      As Jehan grew more wild and defied and defiled
      All the laws, the laws of Notre Dame
      FATHER DUPIN:
      You must leave, Jehan this holy refuge where you've dwelled.
      Sorry Claude,but I've no choice your brother is expelled
      CLAUDE:
      And Frollo didn't hear from his brother for several years.
      CONGREGATION:
      Meanwhile,
      Frollo ascended uncommonly fast through the
      Ranks of Notre Dame
      Till he was named the Archdeacon at last
      And gave thanks to Notre Dame
      And then one doleful day brought a message
      And the name that it bore was “Jehan”
      And concealing his face Frollo stole to a place
      Far away...away from Notre Dame
      FROLLO:
      Brother dearest, come with me
      Where we will find a remedy
      And Notre Dame once more will be your sanctuary
      Healing you will be my goal
      Not just your body, but your soul
      we'll be together in our holy sanctuary
      JEHAN: (Spoken)
      Enough, Claude! It’s too late for me anyway.
      But if you've truly discovered charity at this late date, there's someone you can help.
      FROLLO: (Spoken)
      A baby? Yours? Oh…a monster! It’s God’s judgement on you!
      The wicked shall not go unpunished!
      JEHAN:
      I should have known! I was a fool to think that you would look after him!
      FROLLO:
      Look after him? Me?
      JEHAN:
      He has nobody else!
      Take him…if you can find it in your heart.
      FROLLO:
      Jehan? Jehan?!
      CHORUS:
      DIES IRAE (X2)
      DIES ILLA (X2)
      SOLVET SAECLUM
      IN FAVILLA
      KYRIE ELEISON
      CONGREGATION:
      And the saints regarded Frollo from their stone facade
      CHORUS:
      KYRIE ELEISON
      CONGREGATION:
      And he felt their gaze as if it were the eyes of God
      FROLLO: (Spoken)
      Oh Lord, you’ve sent me a test. This child is my cross to bare.
      I may not have saved my brother, but I will save this…thing.
      (Sung)
      See this lonesome creature from whom lesser men would flee
      I will keep and care for him and teach him at my knee to think like me
      CONGREGATION:(Spoken)
      And Frollo gave the child a name. A cruel name that means half-formed
      FROLLO:
      Quasimodo!
      CONGREGATION:
      Now here is a riddle to guess if you can
      Sing the Bells of Notre Dame
      What makes a monster and what makes a man?
      Sing the Bells, Bells, Bells,
      Bells, Bells, Bells, Bells, Bells
