"Frozen" the Coolest at 41st Annie Awards - Complete List of Winners
by Leroy Douresseaux
ASIFA-Hollywood, the Los Angeles, California branch of the International Animated Film Society, presents the Annie Awards. The Annie honors achievements in animation as a whole, including current animated productions, as well as career and lifetime achievements.
At the 41st Annie Awards, Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Frozen won five awards, including “Best Animated Feature,” “Outstanding Achievement, Directing in an Animated Feature Production” (Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee), and a voice acting award for Josh Gad as “Olaf” the snowman. Frozen is already the fifth highest-grossing animated feature in history ($360+ million domestically and $864.3 million world), as of this writing. Frozen is practically a juggernaut, and this Annie win probably seals the deal for a best animated feature Oscar for the animated musical.
The 41st Annual Annie Awards were held on Saturday, February 1, 2014 at UCLA’s Royce Hall, in Los Angeles, California. They ceremony was hosted by noted voice actor, Patrick Warburton. Director Steven Spielberg (The Adventures of Tintin) was presented with the Winsor McCay Award at the ceremony.
