The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Other mistake: During the "Hellfire" sequence, when Frollo is singing "God have mercy on her, God have mercy on me...", his shadow against the wall behind him rises as he backs up closer to the wall. However, when he turns around to press against the wall, his shadow ends up far above his body when it should have become level with his body by that point - like the very next close-up shot of Frollo shows, which is itself a continuity error.

Factual error: When Quasimodo and Esmerelda are on the roof of the cathedral, a piece of the roof breaks off and slides with them standing on it. The material creates sparks as it slides. The material would be either copper or (more likely) lead, neither of which can be made to spark.

Question: When Frollo, has Ezmeralda, in his grip in the the church, he says "I was just imagining a rope around that beautiful neck" and she says "i know what you were imagining", what was he thinking? I assume its something sexual, but its a cartoon.

Answer: It was most certainly sexual. Frollo's whole arc was his fight against his carnal desires (seeing Esmerelda dancing in the fire, sniffing her hair, etc). In order to maintain a G-rating, they couldn't be overtly sexual, which is why it's done through suggestion and subtext.

Answer: The entire point is that he lusts after her. However, the Disney movie does not dive into that nearly as much as the novel.
