Nicholas Galitzine
English Actor
I had just screen-tested with the director for another prince for a Disney project. I won't say which one, but I'd kind of been through the process with that - and I was so gutted that it didn't work out. I said to my agent, I'm swearing off princes for a little bit.
Quote examples
Toni Collette
Australian Actress
In a lot of films, forever it's been boy-meets-girl, and thank God for films like - I know it's going to sound ridiculous - 'Frozen.' I was so excited for my daughter to be able to watch a love story between two sisters instead of some stupid prince.
Quote examples
Jordan Peterson
Canadian Psychologist
The most propagandistic element of 'Frozen' was the transformation of the prince at the beginning of the story, who was a perfectly good guy, into a villain with no character development whatsoever about three-quarters of the way to the ending.

Kindness is really important to me in finding my own prince - so are patience and a sense of humor. Without those qualities he's no Prince Charming!
