What Makes a Monster and What Makes a Man?

Disney Day 5
Favorite Hero


Quasimodo

For my senior seminar, I took "The Disney Empire: Cult & Power" and despite everything I learned there, I remain a fan of Disney. Like the sweetest drug you'll ever taste, just can't get enough.

Anycrap, I used the Hunchback of Notre Dame (highly underrated movie) as my main focus to demonstrate how Disney portays people with disabilities. And I fell for Quasi all over again. His songs are heartbreakingly touching...

I knew I'd never know
That warm and loving glow
Though I might wish with all my might
No face as hidious as my face was ever meant for Heaven's light

This beautifully tragic song transitions into one of the most uncomfortable songs to ever come out of the Disney: Hellfire.
And I freakin love it.
