The Hunchback of Notre Dame collection

The bells of Notre-Dame ring out at full blast and Quasimodo climbs along the towers above a bustling medieval Paris: that is the powerful image of the 1996 Disney Classic, loosely inspired by Victor Hugo's novel published in 1831! The deformed bell-ringer, kept away from the world by the relentless judge Frollo, escapes during the Feast of Fools and catches the eye of Esmeralda, a gypsy dancer followed by her goat Djali. Captain Phoebus, the mischievous Clopin, master of ceremonies of the feast, and the trio of gargoyles Victor, Hugo and Laverne round out the cast of a story shot through with flames and pyres. Carried by Alan Menken's scores and Stephen Schwartz's lyrics, this fresco ranks among the darkest of the studio's animated Classics. Figures of Quasimodo and his companions extend the Feast of Fools long after the last toll of the bell!
