Love Finds a Way

This has to be one of my favorite moments between Elsa and Anna in the film (besides their hugs ;)).

It’s not just that Elsa is overjoyed that Anna is alive after all. I mean, I think it’s obvious that she puts her fears aside for the moment since she hugged Anna. And after that, she touches Anna’s shoulder and face, then takes her hands in her own.

Even though she hasn’t realized it yet, it is because of her strong love for her sister that Elsa doesn’t produce ice or harm Anna with a touch. I know that Elsa is consciously aware that she is touching Anna. And yet she can’t help doing so. She is just too happy to hold back and do nothing to respond to Anna being revived.

And in her happiness, you can see how Elsa is in complete awe because of what Anna did. She’s speaking her words like she can’t believe it happened, and like she can’t even believe what she is saying. This reaction goes beyond how she felt when Anna arrived at her palace. At that point, she was touched that Anna wanted to help her and did not fear her.

But with this act of Anna sacrificing her life to save Elsa, that tells Elsa only thing: that Anna loves her.
