Frost
JACK FROST
(FROSTY)-1965-In this comedy fairy tale from the Soviet Union, a young girl
Nastenka is treated terribly by her stepmother who dotes on her ugly
older daughter. There's also Ivan,a conceited young man who receives
a bow and arrow from Father Mushroom who feels Ivan is ungrateful
and turns him into a bear. After he helps a blind woman, he's cured
and looks for Nastenka who he met early and became infatuated with.
Unfortunately the girl is abandoned in the snowy forest. Ivan goes for
help to someone called "the humpback fairy" who brings
trees to life and wants to eat him! Nastenka is saved from freezing to
death by Jack Frost, a Santa Claus like character who has a scepter
that freezes things. He takes her to his home to live but while he's
out she touches his specter and is frozen (she was tricked by the
fairy). Somehow Ivan cures her and they live happily ever after with
her older sister being rejected by Frost and publicly humiliated.
Thanks for reading!
