Over deze film

It's Christmas Eve, and a little match girl is out on the cold streets trying to sell matchsticks to the people passing by. She doesn't sell a single match, so she begins to use them to try to warm herself in the snowy cold. As she lights each matchstick, a new fantastic image appears in front of her: a warm stove, a table filled with holiday food delights, a sleigh ride to her grandmother's house. As the matchsticks lose their flame, each image disappears until we see a slumped match girl cold in the snow, being greeted by her grandmother, who takes her away into the light and up to heaven.

This is one of my favorite fairy tales and I'm very pleased with this interpretation. Disney, for good reasons, usually alters the original stories, but not this time.

Probably one of the saddest things I've ever seen, made me cry soooo hard!

Beautiful piece of animated storytelling, amazing music, great adaptation of the story. It's really sad and moving, very emotional. A fantastic film.
