The Hunchback of Notre Dame
1939










Overcome by lust, High Justice Frollo (Cedric Hardwicke) -- a religious fraud -- dispatches deformed bell-ringer Quasimodo (Charles Laughton) to kidnap winsome gypsy Esmeralda (Maureen O'Hara). But Quasimodo is thwarted and pays for his crime with a public flogging. Esmeralda offers him comfort, and her kindness kindles his passion. When she's later falsely convicted of murder and condemned to death, only the love-struck Quasimodo can save her.
