:) no problem

Tara Lipinski was given instrumental versions of Journey To The Past and Once Upon A December before the movie's release by Fox, they asked her to skate to it to promote the movie.

Hi, people.  This is my first post.  I'm a fan of OTMA (particularly Tatiana) and the Frank sisters (Anne and Margot)...

Quote
Granted Anne Frank wasn't made a cartoon

There was an Anne Frank anime produced about ten years ago:

http://perso.wanadoo.fr/kookai.kok/annefrank.htm

http://www.awn.com/folioscope/boutique/DVD/268-JournalAnneFrank.html

The French version came out around 2000, I think.

Apparently, the Anne Frank Center didn't like the movie and refused to support it.  They thought that the movie portrayed Anne's life too idealistically.

Unfortunately, I've never seen that anime movie.  I've never seen the Anastasia animated movie, either. :(

Hi!

I have also heard the the von trapp childrens version of this song at http://www.vontrappchildren.com/  in the section of MP3s of the page.

About the instrumental version of Once Upon A December, (ANYTHING BUT THE POP VERSION) how about "midis" of the song from some "Anastasia (1997)" fan pages? I do not know how to record "midis" on CD-Rs though...

Here are some midis of the song: (Hope they are not the pop versions...)

http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Louvre/2699/MainFrames.html (Go to "The Louvre Gardens" from main frame of the page and you will find "Anastasia midis," including two versions of the song)

http://www.fortunecity.com/tinpan/bush/206/anastasia.html  (At the bottom of the page, you will find one midi of "Once Upon A December)

Thanks so much, aya-anya! I really enjoyed that!!!

I loved Anastasia. I think the movie came out when I was in 1st grade.

I had a backpack that was blue & pink and had Anastasia on it.

I still have the music box,and inside is a little figure of her.

Somehow I moved on to Pochantas and Mulan,but I guess the memories were still there.
"Heart don't fail me now,courage don't deceive me."My cousin liked that line from that movie.

My niece's favorite Disney movie is Pocahontas. *grin* I remember when it first came out, I got her a Pocahontas costume, and it wasn't even a special occasion and she put it on right away. She still sings "Colors of the Wind" in the shower. Beautiful song, and that actually WON an Oscar.

Wow, first grade! You must be pretty young then! Twelve, thirtheen?

The Anastasia cartoon was the first time I ever heard about the Romanovs. One of the things that are wrong with the movie besides the history info is that they have Anastasia being like the 'center' of things. Like the part when Nicholas and Anastasia are dancing in the middle of the ballroom alone, then he kisses her on the forhead. If that even ever happened it would have been Olga, not Anastasia.

I really like the song  'Once Upon a December'. It's really haunting.

Lol. Anastasia certainly did like to be the center of things, but I think if that ever happened it could have been any one of the girls. Not only Olga.   ;)

Olga_Anne, that scene was not a flashback, it was a dream sequence. There is a difference. Dreams never happened, whereas flashbacks suggest that they did.

Update:

On www.filmtracks.com, 4029 votes give Anastasia's soundtrack 5 stars, 1297 give it 4, 926 give it 3, 538 give it 2, and 382 give it 1.

Also, in filmtracks 50 most popular reviews, Anastasia is #31, and the previous year it was #25.

http://filmtracks.com/titles/anastasia.html

The above link takes you to filmtracks' review of the soundtrack.

http://www.filmtracks.com/cool.shtml

That link will show you filmtracks 50 most popular reviews, as well as the top scores of the year according to fans. Gabriel Yared's rejected score for Troy is Best Album of the Year, John Williams is as usual Composer of the Year, and Best Score as Heard in a 2004 film went to The Passion by John Debney.

For the record I agree with these choices! Though I didn't know you could vote for rejected scores, so my vote went to The Village for Album of the Year.

I love that song, I love the whole movie however historically inaccurate it is! It was what introduced me to Anastasia and her family and I will always love the movie for that!

yes i love the songs (english/Danish) and i cried because it so reminds you of the fate of the romanovs, its one of th most beautiful cartoons evermade, have captured my heart even before i really knew about the Romanovs, and the scene where the ghost coming out of the paintings and Anastasia meets her sisters it`s stunnig... the fact that Maria Feodorovna never had been living in paris and all the other things there is historical uncorrect is to forgive some of the movie is indeed beautiful...

Even though it wasn't historically accurate I loved the movie. I did find "Once upon a december" haunting and as previously stated beautiful. Did anyone else like "Back to the past"?

I just wish real life played out just as the movie did. It would have been great.

I love Aaliyah's "Journey To The Past" by the way. The songs in the movie were great...
